Ed Asner -- one the most prolific actors to ever have done it -- has died.
His reps confirm to TMZ that EA passed away Sunday surrounded by family. No other details about the circumstances of his death have emerged.
The family issued a statement saying, "We are sorry to say that our beloved patriarch passed away this morning peacefully. Words cannot express the sadness we feel. With a kiss on your head- Goodnight dad. We love you."
Ed was a veteran actor, having gotten his start in showbiz way back in the '50s, and finding critical success in a recurring role with 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show' by playing Lou Grant ... Mary's TV station boss. He starred in 166 episodes of the series, for 7 long years.

Ah! for the good old days when the media screamed for the termination of series like "Lou Grant." His acting was great, but his head wasn't screwed on right.
