Beloved comedian and actor Gilbert Gottfried passed and the responses from his fellow comedians and actors are pretty heartwarming. Whether it's his work in Aladdin, the AFLAC duck, or his notoriously filthy and hilarious stand-up material, his distinguished career lasted decades and he will be missed.

It was my honor to have met and interviewed and done bits with one of the greats. Rest In Peace, Gilbert Gottfried. #hardblackwax pic.twitter.com/6rgFQnt8aO

I saw Gilbert perform in 1985 and when he entered to applause he said, “Thank you, thank you very much.” He then continued to say “thank you” repeatedly for ten full minutes. It was the nerviest, funniest thing I had seen. So sorry to lose this sweet and delightfully funny man.

Gilbert Gottfried died as he lived, with people saying “too soon.”

Gilbert Gottfried made me laugh so hard that day on set, I could barely do my job. A wholly original comic, and an equally kind and humble guy behind the scenes. He will be missed. https://t.co/93cKB6KEg8
