He died awaiting a lung transplant after being diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. I'm way too young to remember all of his works, so I'll start things off in tribute with one of his greatest commercials ever.



Feel free to add your good Goulet stuff.

He had an amazing voice and the rare ability to be in on the jokes, which this commercial demonstrated.
If you can ever catch old tv shows, especially variety/comedies like The Carol Burnett Show, where he's a guest star, watch'em.
You'll be missed, to be sure, Mr. Goulet.

Who's going to hock nuts at me on TeeVee now?

I liked him best singing "If Ever I Would Leave You" from Camelot.

Oh, absolutely. It gives me chills, it's so beautiful. And from a man, no less.

He was one of the last real entertainers.
