“In Tribute to Ed”

Former Tonight Show sidekick Ed McMahon died early Tuesday morning at the age of 86. Ed had had a series of health problems in recent months, made all the worse by doctors bloopers and practical jokes.

Ed had been in at the UCLA Medical Center receiving care for some time. He is finally at peace, after weeks of nurses handing him a hospital gown saying, ‘He-e-e-e-re’s your johnny.”

Ed knew his time was short when he received a sweepstakes entry in the mail from American Family Publishers that said, “You may have already died.”
