Oh, Man!!! I really feel sorry for they guy. He's my favorite goofball comic. Even my relatively humorless wife loved his send up of Star Wars and American Pie...

The guy is an American classic in the making, I have taken like all day to think what to say. I just feel sorry for his loss and hope he's over it soon

I saw this on the news and he dedicated his current show to his parents. Bad deal to lose both partents at the same time. He is a very funny guy.
