My thoughts are with his sons. They're all great, talented guys, and I know they loved their father very much. I hope they're doing alright.

Oops. [Blushing]

Sorry. He was great as the doctor in Smokey and the Bandit 2.

He also was the cat in Fievel Goes West. He has that distinctive goofy sound. [Smile]

Dom DeLuise voiced Tiger in the original film as well.

*nods*

I loved watching his work, he was a wonderful comic.

*goes off to watch "Ergo" in tribute*

I've only seen him in Robin Hood: Men in Tights, but it was a classic role.

[EDIT] I did not know that he voiced Fagan in the animated Oliver, nor Itchy in All Dogs Go to Heaven. Man, I used to love All Dogs.

I will also be watching "Urgo" in tribute this evening!

I was JUST reading an interview with Peter DeLuise the other day where he talked about how "Urgo" was his favorite episode to direct over any other just because he got to work with his dad, and numerous people asked him how his dad was doing and he was pleased to report that he's still going strong.

Feel like a little sucker punch when you read something like that and then the man in question passes away.

Duh, yeah, Urgo... Tired... (I'm totally exhausted, I need to sleep now, I'm in San Diego at a very intensive class.)
