RIP Ed McMahon, 1923-2009

We’ve lost another of the classic names of the small screen. NBC News is reporting that legendary Tonight Show sidekick and promoter of everything, Ed McMahon has passed away. He had been battling a number of different medical problems for some time. The era of the Tonight Show when he partnered with Johnny Carson was a part of the fabric of life for so many Americans. A long road and a job well done. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends today.
