One of America’s favorite comedic actor, Leslie Nielsen, died Sunday, 11-28-10, in his sleep due to complications of pneumonia. He was 84 years old at the time. Mr.Nielsen was born in Regina, Saskatachewan, Canada in 1926 and has appeared in over 100 films including one of my favorites, The Naked Gun. I remember watching the film as a child and wondering why my dad made me sit there with him, but over time the humor and the film stayed with me. He had a sense of humor that many today will never be able to touch. We and many others honor him and his career. Leslie Nielsen will really be missed.
