Mickey Freeman R.I.P.
We're receiving word at this late hour that Mickey Freeman, Friar's Club man-about-town, perhaps best known as Fielding Zimmerman from the Bilko show has passed away.
They've been running radio ads for a new Broadway show "Old Jew's Telling Jokes"... I wanted to see if Mickey was in this show and shockingly he passed away a year and a half ago... Mickey was hilarious up until the end...You couldn't help but love Mickey.... I know him from his Friday night appearances on WOR's "The Joey Renold's Show" (now gone-replaced by Coast to Coast 4/2010... Mickey was great on that show but Joey never shut up enough to let Mickey talk... MICKEY YOU WERE GREAT UNTIL THE END!!!!!

Mickey and his wife Anne were my neighbors for thirty years. He was adorable and always funny. His mind was at work 24/7 thinking up funny things to say to me or to anyone who talked with him. Their apartment was crammed with showbiz memorabilia, mostly from tv's golden age. He knew everyone! Just before my mother and I moved to Scotland, Mickey and his wife treated us to dinner at the Friar's Club! RIP
I knew Mickey and his wife Anne from The Turkish Kitchen on 3rd Avenue. They often came in and sat with me ---George -the non-Turkisk guy and often invited Soopy Sales to dine with them! What's happened to Anne, if you know --let me know. Thank you. RIP Mickey!
Someone tell me why I haven't seen a contemporary comic funny as him.
