That is terrible to hear.

I loved watching him so much on Frasier. I remember and really enjoyed watching that whole series with my Dad and laughing a lot while doing it. Martin Crane was a good old-fashioned, down-to-Earth, every man type of Dad on that show who also loved to travel in his trusty Winnebago. Thanks for all of the laughs John Mahoney.
