[Monsters For Sale]

One of those comedic actors that always seemed to be amused by the world all around him.

I just watched a bunch of old ACE TRUCKING COMPANY video clips, on YT, in his honor. R.I.P., Fred

[Monsters For Sale]

This morning, before I found out Fred was gone, I watched "The Magic of Belle Isle", 2012.  (Sweet little movie.)

He had a small part, but his presence was a lovely addition to the film - as it always was, whenever he appeared.

[Doh!]

He was always a pleasure to watch! I first caught him on Fernwood Tonight in the 70s.

 Willard stole every scene he ever appeared in. Fernwood Tonight had a treasure trove of "Willardisms". I love all his mockumentaries (so brilliant in Best in Show). He is one person who I will truly miss. R.I.P. Fred, thanks for all the laughs.

"Hey, wha happened?"

That sucks. I love that dude. We saw "Best in Show" at a theater in Detroit a few yrs ago and Willard was there for Q & A. Seemed like such a fun guy.

If you guys have Hulu, they put up the SNL he hosted in 1978. I'm just starting to watch it (again).
