Comedian Dom DeLuise died in his sleep Monday.

Comedy lost a great one again. :(

RIP Dom.

    He made me laugh.

    No cursing, no nudity, no political speeches.

    Thank You Dom

    RIP

    An Amusing fellow that helped define a generation. Comedy too has a 'history' and Dom played an important part in that (STORY).

    I had the privilege of meeting Dom at the feast of San Genero in Hollywood, and was part of a group of folks that he cooked some chicken pasta for. I had a great time and met him afterwards for the recipe. He was A genuine, warm and humorous man that loved food as much as he did others. Dom, it was a pleasure to have met you! God Bless!
