Nice guy.

He was hilarious. He has a great Lucy story still floating around on some ancient blog somewhere.

In the 80s and 90s he played a sort of “stand in” on sitcoms for celebrity hairdresser Jose Eber as they had a bit of physical resemblance.

Not necessarily. Liver cancer can be a result of AIDS, but it's more commonly as result of hepatitis B or C, but it can be caused by genetics, cirrhosis due to main alcoholic fatty liver disease, or heavy drinking.

That should have said NON alcoholic fatty liver disease.

I loved him! My good friend and I still talk about how great he was as the no-fucks-to-give mailman in "Better Off Dead" opening mail, dropping it, reading people's mail, and asking Lane if he can take his ex girlfriend out.

I always thought he was hot. Didn't realize he was gay.

Taylor meets Lucy: "Her hair was pink. Pink like a clown. Pink like the inside of a flamingo's hairbrush. I have never to this day seen any color hair like that. But what was truly shocking to witness was the fact that Lucille Ball was crying. She was wiping tears from her eyes; then she applied lipstick on a mouth that was painted like a kidney bean. Her lipstick was over-painted on her very thin lips, giving the impression of having been placed there with a stencil.

I spied her taking out a jar of Vaseline from her purse, opening it, and taking a dab of the stuff to rub all over her teeth. She did this quickly, patting her eyes again with a Kleenex. Then Lucille Ball got out of the car. She was taller than I expected; she was wearing an orange Polyester pantsuit that flared at the foot. It was all shocking. I had imagined her in black and white and with false eyelashes. Her blue eyes, entirely void of make up, gave her face a strange, reptilian look."

Is that where he learned to put tomato sauce in hair to get rid of the stank?

He was funny as hell. I loved the "you don't want carpet, you want an area rug" bit.

I met him at a wedding yers ago. I wish I had known about the Pink Gorilla story because it is brilliant and rather touching.
