Today we lost another comedy legend. Gilbert Gottfried has died at the age of 67.

In a statement from his family released Tuesday, they announced, “We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our beloved Gilbert Gottfried after a long illness. In addition to being the most iconic voice in comedy, Gilbert was a wonderful husband, brother, friend and father to his two young children. Although today is a sad day for all of us, please keep laughing as loud as possible in Gilbert’s honor.”

It didn’t matter if it was a movie, a commercial or a comedy show/roast he always made me laugh. He even found a place in the hearts of young people and grown ups alike as the voice of Lago the parrot in Disney’s “Aladdin.”

RIP Gilbert. You will be missed.
