Comedian Fred Travalena dies of cancer
Comedian and impersonator Fred Travalena died Sunday afternoon after a seven-year battle with cancer. He was 66.

Travalena -- known as "The Man of a Thousand Faces" -- died at home in Encino, California, surrounded by family, according to his publicist.

He was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2002 and prostate cancer in 2003. Following five years' remission, the lymphoma returned in 2008.

"Since that time, he has been in and out of treatment, consisting of chemotherapy, surgery and radiation," spokesman Roger Neal said.

During Travalena's 40-year career, he entertained audiences with impressions of celebrities such as Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Bob Hope. He was a regular on the "Tonight Show," with Johnny Carson.

Travalena is survived by his wife of 39 years, Lois; sons Fred IV and Cory; daughter-in-law, Kelly; and a granddaughter.

Private services will be held this week, with a public memorial service to be announced later.

I hadn't heard anything about him in a while, but I loved him when I was a kid.

Another victim of the Cancer Industrial Complex.

Diagnosed in 2002 and lived until 2009... therefore the cancer industry will declare him a "survivor" and a victory for their toxic and harmful treatments that target the symptoms and not the root cause.

Sad.

Very good point
I say burn all of your bridges while you still have control of the flame.
We are like flies crawling across the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel: We cannot see what angels and gods lie underneath the threshold of our perceptions. We do not live in reality; we live in our paradigms, our habituated perceptions, our illusions; the illusions we share through culture we call reality, but the true historical reality of our condition is invisible to us.”

You got one guy who was both young and a world class athlete in tremendous physical condition and therefore able to survive the poison and you think that makes your case??

Curing cancer naturally is soooo much better and more effective. I cured my own Stage 4 cancer in two weeks.

who the hell is Fred Travalena?
Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.
