RIP and thanks for the laughs, all of them, and all kinds of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzmoose Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Amen! I loved their work. I always wondered why their son didn't try his hand at being funny... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul secor Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 I saw her at a comedy show a few years ago. Jerry Stiller was performing on the same bill with Professor Irwin Corey and Dick Gregory. Mr. Stiller was reminiscing about his beginnings in show business when a woman in the audience started heckling him. Turned out to be Anne Meara - a setup. She joined him on stage and they were hilarious together. I'm truly sorry to read of her passing. Thanks for the laughter you brought us, Ms. Meara.
