He was one of a kind. One of the most instantly recognizable voices from my lifetime. He had a really impressive career that lasted a long time.

Betty White's death was 2021

I don't think I saw all of his standup, but he made me laugh in the ones I watched. He also had a popular cartoon when I was a kid. I don't recall any particular episode, but I did like it. RIP

Plus 1 for baskets
