I'm not saying this to be a dick, funny or make light of the situation, but I had actually had it in my head that he had died at some point over the last few years...

Anyway, this is sad. Dom DeLuise always reminded me of the late 70s and early, early 80s in TV and movies and--hence--my childhood :(

Hey, I'm just glad it wasnt Chef Paul Prudhomme who Dom seemingly is a twin of. Dom was all over tv in the 60s and 70s; RIP.

Dom Deluise was a funny guy, and I am very sad to hear that he has passed. He had a good comic sense about him, and was talented.

BTW: I too had thought he had passed a while back, but heard something about him last year and was surprised, but pleased, to hear that he was still with us.

Dom Deluise, Rest In Peace. You will be missed!

I have to reiterate the sentiments above. I honestly believed that he had died a while back. Weird. Well, tis sad indeed. A great entertainer.

Somewhere along the line someone told Mel Brooks that he was funny, so he made a few flicks. If not for the guy pictured above, I wouldn't have cracked a smile at any of Brooks' films.

RIP, sir.

I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that...:p

(In his latter years he seems to have lost his touch, but most of his movies up to Spaceballs, pure gold to me)

RIP, Dom! My favorite movie of his is The Twelve Chairs. "A memento of your lovely home!"

I was just looking over Dom's IMDB page and I had no idea he did so much voice over work....
