RIP Harvey Korman

Where do you even begin to start in paying tribute to a comic master, maestro, genius?  So many of today’s so-called “funnymen” could learn a thing or two or hundred or million from one of the true greats, Harvey Korman.  He died Thursday from complications from the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm four months ago.

From The Carol Burnett Show to Blazing Saddles to his comic tour with fellow funnyman Tim Conway, Harvey had the best sneer in the business and could get a laugh from the simple arch of an eyebrow.

He will be truly missed. They just don’t make ‘em like that no more.

    FEBRUARY 15, 1927 – MAY 29, 2008
    R.I.P.

    From “The Flintstones” to “Tom and Jerry”
    To a loved, and well known comedy Star
    Now, all we have are those memories
    As Harvey looks down, from afar.

    Millions watched his long career
    With laughter’s tears, filling their eyes
    Now, many more tears fall, in sorrow
    At our loss, the whole World cries.
