I remember him from so many movies.

Hard to say which one was the best, as he was so funny in them all!

Very Sad :(
But to live 75 years, and laughing much of the time-well, I think I would be very happy to achieve that. :)

Recently watch him in the episode "Vapors" from the second season of "Seaquest DSV." It was a fun episode were he got to act with not one but two of his sons.

And I can never forget the episode of "Stargate SG1" (in which I forgot the name of) where he played a computer program named Harlan, that was placed inside the minds of SG1 and just wanted to have fun. That was a great episode and if I belive correctly was directed by one of his sons as well.

And lastly in my reminising' is the "Robot Chicken" episode that spoofed Cannonball Run, he was even funnier as an action figure!

My late uncle Larry had one of his two cookbooks, "Eat This--It'll Make You Feel Better!" I used to read that whenever I was at his place. It was a great book, especially the family history in it. I would urge anyone who can find it to buy it. The title comes from his mother's favorite expression. I was thinking of something from that book the other day, in fact. Once, Dom had a Mother's Day surprise arranged for his mother, and when Dom's sister went to get their mom, she was surprised to find her mother had cooked a bunch of food up! She insisted that the food be transported to the restaurant where the Mother's Day dinner was being held, and when she got there, she directed the waiters to put the food in swan-shaped foil holders, and handed to the other guests. "It's just a taste," she said. Dom had planned on surprising his mom with a dinner in a fancy New York restaurant, but he ended up getting the surprise!
