We had tickets to see him this past winter and they postponed the show until June because he was ill. Well, he just died, so we just won't get to see him again.

One of the funniest and cleanest comedians I've ever seen, but you can easily see that he HAD to have health problems.

Very funny guy who had an unusual gift for connecting with his audience. He lived to be 50 which is pretty good longevity for the obese. Be glad there is a good sampling of his performances archived where you can reach them.

Let's all go out to a buffet and gorge ourselves in his honor.

Very sad news, he was one of my Dad and my favorites. I remember watching him and the both of us just cracking up. I just saw a flyer that he was coming to town and was going to get tickets to see him  :(

Hi all.
I love Mr. Pinette sense of humor.
He more or less laugh at himself.
He was also a good imitator, especially when he imitate the Chinese.
Too young to die, but he still have his videos on You tube.
