Fred Travalena, the master impressionist and singer whose broad repertoire of voices ranged from Jack Nicholson to Sammy Davis Jr. to Bugs Bunny, has died. He was 66.
Travalena, who began treatment for an aggressive form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2002 and saw the disease return last July after going into remission in 2003, died Sunday at his home in Encino, according to his publicist, Roger Neal. Travalena also was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2003 but had been in complete remission since then.
Not really news worthy, but it seems like the Grim Reaper has been on quite a roll the past week.

...celebrity?
Do you know how many people die in the world every minute?
I don't see how people think there's something unusual going on.

I don't know who he is but I'm sure his fans and family are sad so that sucks that he died.

Billy Mays never really inspired me to do anything other than spend money. |
