On April 1st, it's been two months since Hollywood legend Catherine O'Hara passed away on January 30th at 71 years old. The cause was a pulmonary embolism tied to rectal cancer.

Levy called it a collective heartbreak, saying she's irreplaceable in one of the funniest he's ever seen. He praised her character work, her looks, and her killer improv skills, hailing her as a true queen of comedy. Meanwhile, Levy's dad Eugene, who played her husband on the show, shared a touching statement. They've known each other over 50 years, from 2nd City to SCTV, movies with Christopher Guest.
