    RIP Tim Conway

    Actor and comedian Tim Conway, best known for his work on “The Carol Burnett Show,” died on Tuesday morning in Los Angeles, according to his publicist.


    Did not know he had dementia. Very funny man. Always saw him and Korman as the connecting rod to the golden age of comedy duos and television.

    Loved him in McHale's Navy

    Also, just had an 80's TV flashback ----- Seeing commercials for videos of him as Dorf (Conway pretending to me an inept midget)

    RIP

          He was so funny! I hope that he had as good of a life as it seemed.

          Rest in peace.

                            He said that actually happened to him in the Army. The dentist was suppose to give Tim the shot and wound up stabbing himself.

                              My dad and I always used to watch the Carol Burnett show when I would go to his place for the weekend. I didn't always get the subtle bits as a little kid, I just knew that they were funny as heck.

                              RIP Tim. You will be very much missed.
