Norman Lear, the maestro behind TV hits like All in the Family, Maude, Good Times, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, and The Jeffersons, has taken his final bow at the grand age of 101. Yes, you heard it rightβ€”Norman’s officially left the building.

Cue the laugh track and grab your tissues as we bring you the news from his official Instagram account, the virtual town square of our emotional rollercoaster. In a post that probably made you do a spit-take with your coffee, it declared, β€œIt is with profound sadness and love that we announce the passing of Norman Lear, our beloved husband, father, and grandfather. Norman passed away peacefully on December 5, 2023, surrounded by his family as we told stories and sang songs until the very end.”

Hold on, did they just say they sang songs until the end? Was there a live studio audience applauding his exit too? We can only hope.

The post went on to paint a picture of Norman Lear, the man who found joy in the simple thingsβ€”like his morning cup of coffee. Because who wouldn’t be in awe of that magical elixir that transforms mere mortals into functioning members of society? But Norman didn’t stop at java appreciation; he also marveled at trees outside his window and the sweet symphony of beautiful music. You know, the kind that makes you want to dance like no one’s watching, even if your family is, in fact, watching.

But here’s the heartstring-tugging kicker: it was people who kept his mind and heart forever young. Aww, Norman, we feel you. Nothing like a good dose of human interaction to keep the sitcom of life rolling with laugh tracks and heartwarming moments.

The post signed off with a bittersweet thank you note, β€œAs we celebrate his legacy and reflect on the next chapter of life without him, we would like to thank everyone for all the love and support.” Cue the emotional background music.

Norman is survived by his leading lady, Lyn Davis, who probably had a front-row seat to the greatest show on Earth. And let’s not forget the impressive ensemble cast of six childrenβ€”Ellen, Kate, Maggie, Benjamin, and the dynamic twin duo, Brianna and Madeline. Talk about a full house!

So, as we bid adieu to the maestro of the small screen, let’s remember Norman Lear, not with tears, but with laughterβ€”because if there’s one thing he’d probably want, it’s for us to keep the comedy alive. RIP, Norman. May your afterlife be one long sitcom marathon with endless laughter and commercial breaks for celestial coffee.
