A very talented comedic actor. He will be missed.

I didn't realize that he was such good friends with John Lennon:

was a big fan of boyle's frank barone character on "ELR"...but really loved his guest role as the guy who could predict people's deaths on "x-files." i believe he won the emmy for that guest role. RIP.

Wasn't he the grandad in Everbody loves Raymond??? Oh boy, he made me laugh and I am genuinely so so sad to learn he's passed away

He was also in a film, IIRC, where an airship was involved (a sort of weird balloon thing) I can't recall the name of the film but I think it had Jane fonda in it? Whatever, it was a film I enjoyed and one of those films I've been looking for for years but can't remember the name of. One great actor with a most distinctive style, I'll miss him for one.

Pinkie.
