RIP Don Rickles
« on: April 06, 2017, 04:48:35 pm »
One of my favorite comedians Don Rickles has passed on today of kidney failure at the age of 90.

He was certainly one of a kind. With this PC era we live in, I doubt we'll ever see his like again. RIP Mr Warmth!

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

He and Tim Conway looked like brothers to me.

I used to love him on the Johnny Carson show, I saw him once in Las Vegas many years ago.  What a funny show, what a funny man. RIP

I have read where he was completely opposite of his "on screen" nasty personality.  I read where he was almost like a teddy bear in real life.
Have a wonderful day!

He was a great man and one of the best comedians. He lived a long life. May he now rest in  peace.
