The last original Peanuts strip was published on Sunday, February 13, 2000, just hours after Charles Schulz died in his sleep on the evening of Saturday, February 12, 2000.

2/12/00: Died in his sleep at about 9:45 pm in Santa Rosa, CA. He was suffering from colon cancer, with which he was diagnosed in November 1999. He also had Parkinson's disease.

1990: Named France's Commander of Arts and Letters, one of that country's highest awards for excellence in the arts.

Schulz was the grand marshal of the 1973 Rose Bowl Parade.

In the early 1970s, Schulz had an extra-marital affair with an unnamed woman. He allegedly made a homage to the woman by having Snoopy begin seeing a female beagle with soft paws.

A month after his death, the board of supervisors in Sonoma County, California (where Schulz had lived since 1969) voted to change the name of their commercial airport to "Charles M. Schulz - Sonoma County Airport" (baggage code STS). The airport added a statue of "World War I Flying Ace Snoopy" in 2007, and a statue of "World Traveler Lucy" in 2010.

When Schulz created his first black character, Franklin, in 1968, Time Magazine commented, "It is encouraging to see that even the world of Charlie Brown is not color-blind.".

Originally wanted to name his now-famous strip "Li'l Folks." United Features Syndicate balked at this because there had once been a strip titled "Little Folks." After some brainstorming, a United Features executive came up with the title "Peanuts." Schulz accepted the new title because the first date of publication was fast approaching, but he disliked the title to his dying day. "Peanuts" debuted in seven newspapers on 2 October 1950. It went on to be the most-syndicated strip in history.

As a youth, he had a drawing of his dog appear in Ripley's Believe It or Not (1949).

Charlie Brown first appeared, though unnamed, in Schulz' "Lil Folks" and Saturday Evening Post cartoons in 1947.
