(CNN) -- Jonathan Winters, the wildly inventive actor and comedian who appeared in such films as "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" and "The Loved One" and played Robin Williams' son on the TV show "Mork & Mindy," has died. He was 87.

Winters died Thursday evening of natural causes at his home in Montecito, California, according to business associate Joe Petro III.

In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

Sid Caesar is still with us, I think. Peter Falk had a minor role as a cabbie, if memory serves. And of course Jerry Lewis had a cameo.

Although have not seen Jonathan Winters in recent years, we're all going to miss him and his inventive brand of comedy.

Sorry to say that Peter Falk is no longer with us either.

Darn! I had missed that Peter Falk had passed on.
Trivia: My best childhood friend was named Petter Falck.

One of the funniest men I knew and quite a polymath: actor, artist, author in addition to comic.
