I had heard that he was having health problems, and had not heard of him being out doing anything.
One of the best!!! R.I.P.

So many of his hilarious bits on the Carol Burnett show were ad libbed. The man was a comedic genius.

A comedy legend, RIP, Tim!

With Tim passing, Doris Day, and Peggy Lipton over the weekend, let's hope it stops for a while.
