LOS ANGELES - Dick Martin, the zany half of the comedy team whose "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In" took television by storm in the 1960s, making stars of Goldie Hawn and Lily Tomlin and creating such national catch-phrases as "Sock it to me!" has died. He was 86.



Martin, who went on to become one of television's busiest directors after splitting with Dan Rowan in the late 1970s, died Saturday night of respiratory complications at a hospital in Santa Monica, family spokesman Barry Greenberg said.



"He had had some pretty severe respiratory problems for many years, and he had pretty much stopped breathing a week ago," Greenberg said.

In a day and age when laughter is so needed, we are losing to many of the good comedic minds. Dick, you too will be missed.

Another great variety show that was so funny and he really was great at his craft!  He is in a better place in heaven meeting his partner Dan Rowan and I bet they are doing a comedy show for the angels up there!
