The world lost another good person and a legend of folk poetry on Wednesday. Goodbye and thank you for the laughs, Henry Gibson.

Wow this is truely a sad day with both him and Mary gone. He was great-like most of you I first saw him on Laugh-In and I can't imagine that show without him. Thanks for making us laugh out loud!
