Woke up to hear on the news that Ed McMahon died at age 86 (Johnny Carson's sidekick) ... how sad.

[ChitChatNine]

He passed away from a multitude of health issues.

What a loss.

Here in Aus, it wasn't really front page news, but we did hear about it. I loved Ed's voice...quite sexy really!
  Sad to see all the old greats fading out. I can't think in the future, who we will hold in such esteem as those greats from the past.
Rest In Peace Ed!

He played "2nd Fiddle" to Johnny in such a 1st Chair kind of way.  I really liked the guy...

Will never forget the sound of his voice, "H-e-e-e-e-r-e's Johnnnyyyy!" .. and being such a participant and supporter of MDA right along with Jerry Lewis.  

He will be missed ..

He will be missed for sure.......not many people would accomplish half as much as he did in a life time.  My hat is off to him.

I get my email through Yahoo,so to get it, you have to go through the main page...so I always see all the 'big news'. I just saw that he died when checking my mail. That is so sad, but he did live a long life. I hope he didn't suffer.
