LOS ANGELES - Peter Boyle, the tall, prematurely bald actor who was the tap-dancing monster in "Young Frankenstein" and the curmudgeonly father in the long-running sitcom "Everybody Loves Raymond," has died. He was 71.
Boyle died Tuesday evening at New York Presbyterian Hospital. He had been suffering from multiple myeloma and heart disease, said his publicist, Jennifer Plante. A Christian Brothers monk who turned to acting, Boyle gained notice playing an angry workingman in the Vietnam-era hit "Joe." But he overcome typecasting when he took on the role of the hulking, lab-created monster in Mel Brooks' 1974 send-up of horror films. The movie's defining moment came when Gene Wilder, as scientist Frederick Frankenstein, introduced his creation to an upscale audience. Boyle, decked out in tails, performed a song-and-dance routine to the Irving Berlin classic "Puttin' On the Ritz." It showed another side of the Emmy-winning actor, one that would be exploited in countless other films and perhaps best in "Everybody Loves Raymond," in which he played incorrigible paterfamilias Frank Barone for 10 years God is like Scotch Tape you can't see Him but you know He's there |

One of his roles people don't talk about a lot was in Monsters Ball. He played Billy Bob Thornton's racist father. Boyle was excellent in the role, so far away from the sweet grump on Raymond. He will be missed!

"I loved this man on Raymond. I thought that he made the show what it is."
I agree with you, LMFPchick! I was not a big fan of the show, but some of those scenes with Frank and Doris Roberts were priceless! ______________________________ He still stands in spite of what his scars say I’ll battle till this bitter finale Just me, my dignity and this guitar case ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Nobody has ever measured, even poets, how much a heart can hold. — Zelda Fitzgerald Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood.
