Tony Randall Tribute

Tony Randall: 1920-2004

Tony Randall passed away on May 17, 2004. His death was sad news to Odd Couple fans around the world. On this page you'll find articles, commentary, and tributes to him.

This cartoon appeared in the New York Post a few days following Tony's death. It does, however, include one glaring error - Tony was Jewish, so there wouldn't be a priest at his burial.

This cartoon appeared at the end of Tony's 1992 book, Which Reminds Me. The last chapter featured humerous epitaphs for various celebrities, living or dead. Since Tony seemed to have a sense of humor about his own death, I felt it would be appropriate to include it here.

On May 18, 2004, Jack Klugman and Heather Harlan Randall appeared on Larry King Live to talk about Tony. Click here for a transcript.
