Remembering Ed McMahon

June 23rd 2009 16:19
You probably know him best as the “Heeeeeer’s Johnny!” guy who ushered in Johnny Carson all those years. Sadly, the Tonight Show sidekick died early Tuesday at the age of 86. He will be greatly missed.



From the Associated Press:

McMahon died shortly after midnight at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center surrounded by his wife, Pam, and other family members, said his publicist, Howard Bragman.

Bragman didn't give a cause of death, saying only that McMahon had a "multitude of health problems the last few months."

McMahon had bone cancer, among other illnesses, according to a person close to the entertainer, and had been hospitalized for several weeks. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to release the information.

McMahon broke his neck in a fall in March 2007, and battled a series of financial problems as his injuries preventing him from working.
