RIP Bert's great wit.
He will be sadly missed. The world has lost one of its greats. He was not only a talented person, but he was unique - a genius. It's such a loss. It feels like when Kennedy died, when Elvis died. My sympathy goes to the family. It's a big loss and it's not even sinking in right now. I'm just devastated, very, very sad. I pray that his soul is up there now. I'm still trying to hold on to the glimmer that it is not true. But you also have to remember that he went through different stages and owed some of his popularity to collaborators.
