Actor Art Carney dead at 85

(CNN) --Art Carney, who paired with Jackie Gleason in the classic series "The Honeymooners" and won an Oscar for his role as an retired teacher traveling through America in the 1974 film "Harry and Tonto," has died. He was 85.

Carney passed away Sunday at his home in Connecticut, according to a spokesman for a Connecticut funeral home, and was buried in a private ceremony Tuesday.

"The family is very private, and that's why no one was notified until after the funeral," said Philip Appell, a spokesman for Swan Funeral Home in Clinton, Connecticut.

Though he appeared in more than 25 films -- and created the role of Felix Unger in the original Broadway version of "The Odd Couple" -- Carney, a veteran of the World War II invasion of Normandy, became famous playing sewer worker Ed Norton, Jackie Gleason's foil on the 1950s television comedy "The Honeymooners."

With Gleason, who played the blustery bus driver Ralph Kramden, the two embarked on get-rich-quick schemes and other tomfoolery in an effort to get ahead in life. Their wives -- Norton's wife Trixie (Joyce Randolph) and Ralph's wife Alice (Audrey Meadows) -- were endlessly patient with their husbands.

The role earned Carney three consecutive Emmy awards.

Art Carney was great as Jackie's straight man in The Honeymooners. He was also good in the handful of movies I remember seeing him in. It's a shame to see these people dying off the way they have been the last couple of years but no one lives forever.

One advantage of being an old fart like me is that I got to see the original episodes each week...he was part of my childhood.

He was a unique talent...and will be missed.

two words ...... 'Helloooo ball'

Honeymooners is still funny 50 years later, love the look of it, just a simple drab theatrical set but it just evokes a time and place so well.
