Taylor Negron has passed away at the age of 57 after a long battle with cancer, Entertainment Weekly reports. He was a club comedian, who had many iconic roles onscreen, including delivering Jeff Spicoli's pizza in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Negron was surrounded by family when he passed, and is survived by his wife, Julie.
I'm glad he had an extensive career, and I'm sorry the media is just remembering him as the pizza delivery guy. I've seen that movie many times, and while I remember the pizza, I don't remember the man behind it.
He did a stand up bit about an over sharing waitress and his punchline was the words "emotional skid mark". I laughed until I cried. Godspeed, Mr. Negron.
This saddens me..Never saw his stand up but it's always suck ass when cancer wins. I'm sure his wife must be devastated as well as all of his other friends and family.

I remember seeing him years ago in some stand-up show on TV and I thought he was hilarious.
ReplyDeleteHe was a horny son in law in Easy Money with Rodney Dangefield.
