Oh sad times….Dom DeLuise has passed away.

The Golden Globe-nominated comic actor died Monday at a Los Angeles hospital, The Baltimore Sun has learned.

The noted cook and author- who penned several cooking guides and children’s books — is perhaps best-known for his work in Mel Brooks films like Blazing Saddles, Silent Movie, History Of The World Part One, Space Balls, and Robin Hood: Men in Tights.

Dom also co-starred with Burt Reynolds in films, including Cannonball Run, Smokey and The Bandit 2, and The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.

I absolutely loved him as the voice of Itchy in All Dogs Go To Heaven – one of many childhood favorites.

Dom DeLuise was 75.

So long, Dom.
