If you are my age ( 46) you remember Dom Deluise from so many wonderful comedy films and TV shows. He was in Cannonball Run, Space Balls, Hot Stuff, The Muppet Movie ( yes, I am a freak for the Muppets) and one of my all time favorites shows from when I was young Please Don't Eat The Daises. If I were to list all he has worked in, it would be an all nighter for me. And now he is gone. He left this earth at age 75 today according to a representative for his son David.

As this happens, I get more and more sad. These were the greats of Stage and screen, the icons of my youth. I enjoyed his acting, his laughter, and his smile and will miss him greatly.

Here's to you Mr. Deluise, thank you for all the great laughs and memories. May we meet on the other side one day.
