Leslie Nielsen, best known as the bumbling detective Frank Drebin in “The Naked Gun” films, passed away yesterday due to complications from pneumonia. He was 84.

Roger Ebert has a very detailed obituary, including many interesting and sad facts about his earlier years.
Please take a few moments to remember Mr. Nielsen, and enjoy this highlight reel of his work:
