Richard Dunn of ‘Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job’ dies


Actor Richard Dunn, known for his role as himself on Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job, passed away early this morning.

Tim Heidecker of the popular Adult Swim show announced the actor’s passing via Twitter today:

Deeply saddened to announce that our friend Richard Dunn passed away at 7:14am this morning.

Heidecker has not tweeted further with details about the elderly actor’s death. TIME did a run down of Dunn’s recent work history:

In recent years Dunn racked up numerous credits playing variations of the doddering old man type, with small parts in Parks and Recreation, Weeds, The Wedding Singer and the music video for P. Diddy’s “Bad Boy for Life.”

Brooklyn Vegan posted a pretty thorough memorial for Dunn, saying the actor was a fan favorite in the role and always interacted enthusiastically and in a friendly way with the show’s fan base. The author of the post says a memorial site will be launched soon for Dunn.
