The actor had been battling colon cancer for years and died at home, according to a social media post shared by sitcom co-star Jeannie Russell.
"He had a heart as big as a mountain, loved his friends deeply," wrote close friend Laurie Jacobson on Facebook. "He called us frequently and ended every conversation with 'I love you with all my heart.' And we loved him with all of ours."
