Actor, Comedian and Chef, Dom DeLuise,(seen here in 2006 with Bert Reynolds) died Monday evening, May 4th 2009.
His son, Michael DeLuise told KTLA-TV and radio station KNX on Tuesday morning of his death, which took place while he slept, after a lengthy illlness.
DeLuise, who loved to cook and eat nearly as much as he was in love with acting created a great second career later in his life as a chef, and was often asked to appear on morning television shows to create favorite recipes. DeLuise also authored two cookbooks.
