Bob Elliott(1923-2016), one of the radio comedy team Bob and Ray passed away from throat cancer. He was a month shy of 93. Bob and his late partner frequently paired into the 1970s' even appearing on SNL's 2nd season a few times. Together they appeared on Happy Days and Newhart. He also Following his manager's premature death he married his widow for 54 years. Chris Elliott, his son is perhaps best remembered as Peter from Everybody Loves Raymond or for his roles in Something About Mary and Groundhog's Day. Bob started the SNL lineage as his older granddaughter Abby, my Hollywood crush of sorts appeared as a cast member for four seasons begging in 2008. His legacy will continue through Chris, Abby, and Bridey. An underrated comedic legend that will be missed.

Yeah, that's a shame when one passes due to something like cancer but at least he lead a very long and fulfilling life. How many people out there lead a life full of disappointments and unfinished business??
