Photo: WireImage Fred Willard, the prolific comedian, actor, and writer whose career spanned more than half a century, has died at the age of 86. Willard’s daughter confirmed his death to Rolling Stone, noting that it was from natural causes. “My father passed away very peacefully last night at the fantastic age of 86 years old,” she said. “He kept moving, working, and making us happy until the very end. We loved him so very much! We will miss him forever.
In an interview with Vulture several years ago, Willard reminisced about getting his start on The Ed Sullivan Show and The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson, as well as how he prefers to view himself, above all else, as a family-friendly comedian. “I’ve been in a lot of shows, I will say that. Every once in a while I’ll look at a tape of something I’ve done and I won’t even remember having done it,” he joked about his extremely long résumé.
