Bob Einstein died at age 76 from cancer at his home in California

The actor who played Larry David's friend Marty Funkhouser on HBO's hit series 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' and a famed parody of daredevil stuntmen, Super Dave Osborne, has died at 76.

Bob Einstein, the Emmy-award winning comedy writer, died at his home in California of a recently diagnosed cancer, according to TMZ.

'R.I.P. My dear brother Bob Einstein. A great brother, father and husband. A brilliantly funny man. You will be missed forever,' Albert Brooks, Einstein's younger brother, tweeted.

He's best known for his most recent work as the recurring character Funkhouser, one of David's oldest friends on 'Curb Your Enthusiasm,' showing up from 2004 until the last season.

His silly stuntman character, Super Dave Osborne, got him regular guest spots on late night talk shows, his own cable shows and even an animated series in 1992.

Aside from his acting, Bob Einstein was an accomplished comedy writer and producer, winning Emmy awards for work on 'The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour' and  'Van Dyke and Company,' Deadline Hollywood reports.

Born on November 20, 1942, in Los Angeles, to Thelma Leeds, an actress, and Harry Einstein, a comic, writer and actor, Stewart Robert Einstein swore off comedy when Milton Berle and other comics joked at his father's funeral in 1958. 

Einstein was going to go into advertising when he caught the eye of Tom Smothers of The Smothers Brothers duo when he was 26-years-old, according to Deadline. 

'I go over and now I'm sitting and watching rehearsals and my mind is burning and all of sudden out of nowhere I want this, a bee has stung me in the back, and I want this,' after he was invited to the set by the famed comedian. 

Younger brother Albert Brooks tweeted a touching tribute to the recently deceased Bob Einstein

Bob Einstein's 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' co-star and comedic legend in his own right also tweeted a tribute to the late actor

He won his very first Emmy working on the writing team for The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.  

'I'm in shock. I knew him forever,' tweeted 'Curb' co-star and legendary comic, Richard Lewis. 'I knew him forever. (Heart symbol) to his loved ones. His long career is hard to match. His role on #curbyourenthusiasm was excruciatingly brilliant! Our cast and crew will be devastated.' 

⁩He is survived by his wife of over 40 years, Roberta Einstein, daughter Erin Einstein Dale, son-in-law Andrew Dale, his grandchildren Ethan and Zoe, and an older brother, Cliff Einstein.

The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters.

Bob Einstein, the...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
