Art Buchwald off to Valhalla
 

A character to the end. He made a video in which he said "Hi, I'm Art Buchwald and I just died"
Rest in peace.

That is kinda wierd, huh?

A very intelligent, funny, kind man. Pretty classy guy and
an up from the gutter success story typical of that
generation, imo. He checked into a hospice a year ago,
fooled the docs, and did his own "goodbye tour" on his
terms and checked out in style. RIP.

One of a kind. He said he had a dream about dying and was waiting to go up to the pearly gates. In his dream he heard an announcement saying that the flight was cancelled. His wit was sharp as ever right to the end.
