Sounds like John Spencer from The West Wing has died of a heart attack. If he's the person I'm thinking of, I feel really sorry for his wife--every time I saw them together on the red carpet, it was clear she adored him.
PearlySweetcake has created a thread for him in the Celebrities section.

If anyone remembers Michael Vale A.K.A. "Fred the Baker," from the Dunkin Donuts commercials ("Time to make the doughnuts"), he just descended to the "Big Bakery in the Sky."

First Mr. Rogers, then Wendie Jo Sperber, then Vincent Schiavelli and now this. My childhood is taking hits left and right. I'm thinking of sending a letter to Steve "Savage" Holland just to make sure he's okay.

Blue?? Nooo!!
I hate to be the one who goes for the obvious joke, but what the hell: "You my boy, Blue! You my boy!"

I had to go to IMDb to look him up, and.... awwwwwwwwwwww! That cute, little old guy died! I've never seen Old School, not my type of comedy, but that sweet little old man was a decent character actor. It's been quite a run on celeb deaths lately, huh? Anyone call old fart Sean Connery yet? He might be to onery to die, though. LOL.

The sad thing is that many of these deaths won't get the publicity they deserve, since this article points out that every writer for the major magazines, newspapers, etc. wants the last two weeks of the year off -- apparently, the Associated Press published their year-in-review on December 14th and I'm sure things like EW's Year-End issue are prepped far in advance too. That sucks. So if you're a celebrity, don't die during the holidays. I think Sean Connery seems in fair enough health, still -- a quick glance at IMDB lists that he's had radiation therapy for an undisclosed throat ailment back in 93, but that doesn't seem too major and he appears to be mentally coherent these days. 75 doesn't seem too old these days, with the wonders of medicine and all.

Lou Rawls has died from lung cancer. Seems to be a lot of that lately. Local news here said they found the body of Barry Cowsill but I can't find any confirmation of it.
