A memorial service was held at the James Bridges Theatre at UCLA for Jack Larson on December 6, 2015. I, and many other fans and friends, attended.
Following the service, several of us migrated to the Smokehouse Restaurant in Toluca Lake for dinner. While there, we ran into comedian Chuck McCann. Several of us had a photo taken with him.
It has been reported by The Hollywood Reporter that McCann passed away yesterday:
The fun-loving star did lots of voiceover work, was a fine Oliver Hardy impersonator and appeared in 'The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter.'
Chuck McCann, the goofy, good-natured comedian and TV host who was a hero to kids of all ages in and around New York City in the 1960s before he jumped into films, network television and commercials, has died. He was 83.
McCann died Sunday of congestive heart failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, publicist Edward Lozzi told The Hollywood Reporter.
