'I'm heartbroken,' Burnett told TODAYShow. 'He was one in a million, not only as a brilliant comedian but as a loving human being. I cherish the times we had together both on the screen and off. He'll be in my heart forever.'

."As a matter of fact, in the dentist sketch you can actually see Harvey wet his pants from laughing." Born in Ohio in 1933, Conway got an early start in both television and comedy, writing skits that appeared during the intermission period when a movie aired, and he even recorded a comedy album with voice announcer and host Ernie Anderson. The pair honed their chops on local Cleveland TV; Conway moved up the ladder after meeting"The Dick Van Dyke Show" actress Rose Marie, who helped him land a job on"The Steve Allen Show.
From there, he went on to national recognition as the inept, naive Ensign Charles Parker in the 1960s sitcom"McHale's Navy," on which he starred opposite Ernest Borgnine. He also could draw on direct military experience for the part: Conway served in the Army from 1956-58.
