He will be missed. I so enjoyed watching him on TV. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Back when he was on with Kathie Lee, I didn't leave the house until their intro sigment was over. The combo did work well, but it was because of him. I never watched her after those two split up. And I never watched Regis and Kelly. She drives me nuts.

I also loved Regis and will miss him. Loved him on his show, on Millionaire, and loved him on David Letterman.

@depglass Kelly was ok in the beginning but as time progressed she kind of took over and IMO wanted all the spotlight on her. Once Regis was gone that was it for me.

I am sad to see the passing of Regis. I always enjoyed watching him and Kathie Lee, but it wasn't often since I was at work during their show. I also loved him on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire". May he rest in peace. Job well done, Regis!!!

I have taken the passing of Regis very hard, I have watched him for quite sometime. This morning Live With Kelly and Ryan had a nice tribute to him, it had me in tears.

Regis liked Joan Rivers and other great comedians, so may they have a great re union. A lot of good ones have gone in the last couple of years. Because of my age, pretty close to Most of them, there is not the talent today like the ones that have gone.

Never be another Regis. He was one of a kind!!

The last time I saw Regis was on a Jimmy Kimble special. Kimble was starting the new Millionaire show and wanted Regis' blessing.

David Letterman's tribute ended with 'I Love You'.

It was wonderful!! I wish I had known in advance, I would have posted here about it, but I found it by accident channel surfing.

I enjoyed the ABC special as well. It was nice when they showed of Regis

and Katie Couric. I love the surprise when all the students were waiting

inside the auditorium at the college to surprise Regis.

I never knew that he wanted his wife Joy to be the co-host after Kathie

Lee left and she turned him down.

What a man. Exactly as Kathie Lee said, there will never be anyone else

like him.
