Actor David Lander has died at the age of 73.
Lander was best known for his role as Squiggy on the sitcom 'Laverne & Shirley,' opposite Michael McKean, who played his roommate, Lenny.
CNN reports Lander died on Friday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after fighting multiple sclerosis for decades.
Lander kept his illness a secret until 1999 with the release of his memoir, 'Fall Down Laughing: How Squiggy Caught Multiple Sclerosis and Didn't Tell Nobody.'
My doctor painted a fairly bleak picture of the disease, even going so far as to tell me I probably wouldn't walk again. Whatever happens, MS can't take it all. I will always have my heart and soul, my wit and wisdom. David Lander Interview, Brain & Life Magazine
