Charles Nelson Reilly passed away at 76. Reilly, well known in the seventies for his irreverent, sardonic humor on television game show "Match Game" was an accomplished Broadway actor, winning a Tony Award in 1962 for his portrayal of Bud Frump in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying."

"When I die, it's going to read, 'Game Show Fixture Passes Away'. Nothing about the theater, or Tony Awards, or Emmys. But it doesn't bother me."
