Ed McMahon has passed away, his publicist said Tuesday.

McMahon died just past midnight at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles.

The former Tonight Show sidekick had suffered a lot of health setbacks these last few years and was also battling cancer.

He was 86 years old.

Our thoughts and well-wishes to his family and friends!

Sad.
