Very talented.  Did you know he also wrote children's books?  By accident I happened to be in a BooksAMillion one day in time for a signing way back.  I think I still have a copy of King Bob's New Clothes around here someplace.

He was usually funny, always entertaining.

Did you know he was in "Fail Safe"? Surprised me when I finally got my own copy and could watch it at my lesure.

We already lost the greatest of the greatest (now) generation. But Abe Vigoda is still alive and I believe can never die.
I apologize in advance for everything I say on here. I regret it immediately after clicking post.

Well, he leaves behind quite a legacy. Three sons who are all in involved in television.  It says a lot about the closeness of his family that he and all three of his sons were involved in Star Gate SG-1 which one of his sons was producer and sometimes director of.  His kids may not be comedians or quite as famous, but they are all talented and successful and apparently like working together.  That says something about their father.

Speaking of Star Gate, his episode was a great one and is one thing about him I will always remember.

Heard about this yesterday evening. A real shame. He'll be missed.

I never realized Dom Deluise was 75 years old.  :blink:

It looks like most of an older generation of comedians is performing for the angels now. I hope Jonathan Winters and Sid Caesar live to be 150.
