Four months ago, Korman suffered a rupture in an aortic aneurysm located in his abdomen and died from complications related to the illness. 
"Everything he did on "The Carol Burnett Show", especially the Mother Marcus character, was a special favorite. Everyone in the hospital referred to him as 'miracle man' because of his strong will and ability to bounce right back after several major operations. It was a miracle in itself that he survived the incident at all," said Korman's daughter, Katherine Korman, in a statement to the press.
