We hold this actor near and dear to our hearts and were very upset to hear of his passing. He is one of the best and most loved comedians of all time.

It was in the late ’70s where he broke into the scene, with his role in Mork and Mindy. This movie won him five Grammy Awards, which had him sitting on $150 million. A nice chunk of change.
