(CNN) Gilbert Gottfried, a comedian and film and television actor with a distinctly memorable voice, has died after a long illness, his family announced on Tuesday.
He was 67.
"We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our beloved Gilbert Gottfried after a long illness. In addition to being the most iconic voice in comedy, Gilbert was a wonderful husband, brother, friend and father to his two young children. Although today is a sad day for all of us, please keep laughing as loud as possible in Gilbert's honor," his family wrote in a post on Twitter. |

I’m heartbroken to hear this. My thoughts are with his family. I’m forever grateful for the joy he brought me with his work.

Ouch. Not a great news to wake up to.
May his soul rest in peace...

Canon confirmed. Iago and Jasmine were gal pals.

Our hearts are shattered at the loss of our beloved friend, collaborator, behind-the-scenes mischief maker, and most irreverent spirit, full of light and magic. Gilbert Gottfried, you were one of a kind. The world was lucky to have you, and so were we. Love, Jonathan, Linda, and Scott
Our little family is getting smaller

*sobs* My autism may just be a mild case, but can't deny it affects me on a daily basis and makes it harder to really connect to people irl, so seeing them actually trying to help and be understanding... just so nice to see.
