This is really eerie, because I was just watching a lengthily interview with him the other day (I believe it was recorded just a couple of years ago), and at one point he mentioned he was recovering from a stroke (which sort of made his memory fuzzy), but apparently, it was esophigal cancer that did him in.

Sad news. He was very good as host of Family Feud, but he did his best work on Match Game. He dominated that panel.

When will doctors learn that esophigal cancer is treatable? Yes, it's risky, but it works; my grandfather is living proof!

I... uh... kinda thought he was already gone.

Also of note, the Trololo singing guy apparently died. We lost an overused internet meme.

A lot of people did too apparently, but now it would seem that Robert Clary (LeBeau) is now the only surviving Hero (Hogan's Heroes) remaining.

That French guy who was singing about Pacman?
