He also wasl featured in "Stump the Stars," and the "Ghost Story." The bearded actor was proud ot his rotund figure.

"I like to think of myself as a rather dashing figure, like Falstaff. I've weighed 280 pounds since I was about 20 years old, and I like it," he once said in an interview. In addition to his wife, Cabot is survived by his three children, Annette, Christopher and Yvonne.
