He died of a heart attack at his home in California.

I really enjoyed his “Silver Streak” and “Stir Crazy” movies with Gene Wilder, but I looked him up in IMDb, and he was in a BUNCH of films!

He was only 65 years old, but he had been ill for years with multiple sclerosis.

Funny, funny man. It saddens me to hear of his succumbing to a terrible affliction.

He was one of the first comedians I ever heard use the F word. I seem to recall he really liked it. ha ha

The Toy.

A very funny man gone.
