I was just coming to say something. I know he has had some on/off health issues as of late.
Running is a big question mark that's there each and every day. It asks you, 'Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to be strong today? Peter Maher

I liked him too.

I've got to believe there's more to this story. Who dies from pneumonia at that age?
I ran a mile and I liked it, liked it, liked it.

So sad!
I will remember his voice forever when I hear or think these words: "Milk and Cookies".

THis is too, too sad. Did anyone ever see the Now You Got It episode of his show where he tries to avoid getting sick from his kids? It was so funny, I had to order the DVD. Sad.
I'll try anything once, twice if I like it, three times to make sure.

Unfortunately pneumonia can be fatal...like the flu. Things that people often think of as benign. Didn't Jim Hensen die from some pneumonia complications, too?

I was really sad when DH told me Bernie Mac died. He played some great comedic characters. LOVED him in Bad/Badder Santa and The Transformers (even though that part was small, it was really memorable).
