Another passing in Hollywood today--Ed McMahon passed away early Tuesday morning at Ronald Reagen UCLA Hospital.
McMahon, 86, will be forever remembered as Johnny Carson's side kick on the glory days of the Tonight Show. Unfortunately, financial and health problems seemed to takeover McMahon's later years.
Being on the sidelines while Johnny Carson took center stage never seemed to bother McMahon--he told people:
"It's like a pitcher who has a favorite catcher," he said. "The pitcher gets a little help from the catcher, but the pitcher's got to throw the ball. Well, Johnny Carson had to throw the ball, but I could give him a little help."
