 He was a former accountant who rose to comedy superstardom with a mathematical precision in timing deadpan routine to a decimal point. He died at the age of 94. The last time I saw him in an interview, he looked really sickly. But I would say that that was almost a year ago, pretty close to a year ago when I saw him. He certainly looked the part of the weary everyman that he played so well on the comedy albums that launched his career.
