Peter Boyle Dead at 71.


Peter Boyle Dead at 71.

Posted by thedudeman 1063 days ago
Peter Boyle, the actor who transformed from an angry workingman in "Joe" to a tap-dancing monster in "Young Frankenstein" and finally the comically grouchy father on "Everybody Loves Raymond," has died. He was 71.

Boyle died Tuesday evening at New York Presbyterian Hospital. He had been suffering from multiple myeloma and heart disease, said his publicist, Jennifer Plante.

"It's like losing a spouse,"
Doris Roberts, who played his wife on "Raymond," said in a statement. "I'm going to miss my dear friend, so unlike the character he played on television. He's a brilliant actor, a gentleman, incredibly intelligent, wonderfully well read and a loving friend."

    Definitely a tragic loss; he will be missed.

    I remembered the episode when Raymond's father was working on the staircase and collapsed and he said "holy crap". It was one of the funniest episodes I have seen! Or the famous saying "Thou shall not eat the holy canoli!"

    peter boyle was a great actor way before everybody loves raymond. its good to see that other people appreciated his work. seeing him on ELR and then seeing him do work like on monsters ball showed you he was a talented actor, he will be missed.

    Forget that Raymond crap. He was Frankenstein's monster, he was Joe, he was Wizard in Taxi Driver for fuck's sake. He was a great man to have around while we could.
