We Lost Another Entertainer - This One A Comic Genius

[cadence4u]

Moments ago I logged out of Fusion Cash.  When I went to the front page of my browser, I saw the sad headline -

Tim Conway passed away after a battle with alzheimer's disease.    I will never forget his role on the Carol Burnett Show.

He was certainly a rare talent and will be missed for a long time.

It was claimed that he had 'suffered complications from Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH)'
And it was added that he had 'no signs of dementia or Alzheimer’s' even though earlier reports conflict that

That is sad. I liked to watch him.

Tim Conway was so good on the Carol Burnett show. The whole cast was good, but the episodes with Tim were far and away the best because he took the humor to another level. He cracked up not just the audience, but the cast.

Love him on the Carol Burnett but also was great on the Andy Griffith show.  Enjoyed them both.

Yes, we lost another, they come in threes sometimes.  He was really funny, may he rest in peace.

He was one that the entire family could watch together. HE WAS FUNNY in so many different things, I remember him in the Apple Dumpling Gang too.  His son is on a nightly radio show oust here that is very popular and funny.  He tells stories often about growing up and life with is Dad.  One story was about a tribute to the Carol Burnett Show a couple of years ago.  He did not get on the show because he forgot his ID and the guard at the gate would not let him in because he did not know who he was. Everyone wa furious.  I do not know what happened to that guard.  I always enjoyed his work.  RIP.

I loved the way Tim Conway would add extra lines to the script that no one else knew about. He would always have the others cracking up. The Carl Burnett Show was one of the best shows on TV. I wish they would have good clean show like that on again.

I really love the Carol Burnett Show especially because improv/sketch comedy is one of my favorite hobbies. Tim Conway was also so funny that he broke the other performers out of character. That is really hard to do for someone who has been doing that type of performing for a long time. Tim Conway will be missed greatly.
