I was shocked as well as I don't think anyone but the family and close friends knew, so his illness was not publicized. Larry King's guests tonight were Ray Romano, Brad Garrett (Robert) and Doris Roberts (Marie). It was a wonderful program with them sharing stories and film clips. Everybody Loves Raymond was one of my all time favorite shows. I think the casting was perfect. You really thought, at least for that half hour, that these people were family. RIP Peter.

Caseysmom, your comment is exactly what Doris Roberts said at the end of the show...

"holy crap!" I am gonna miss you.

So will we all.
