Remembering Regis Philbin, Legendary TV Personality.
ALLEN: U.S. television may never be quite the same now that Regis Philbin is gone. He died Friday at the age of 88. He left a hilarious legacy as a talk show and game show host and as a comic sidekick. Philbin had a razor sharp wit and was quick with one-liners. Long-time co-host Kathie Lee Gifford posted this poignant message on Instagram, saying, "There are no words to fully express the love I have for my precious friend, Regis. I simply adored him and every day with him was a gift. We spent 15 years together, bantering and bickering and laughing ourselves silly." Before Kathie Lee, there was former co-host Sarah Purcell.</s>SARAH PURCELL, FORMER PHILBIN CO-HOST: He was a warm, loving guy. He just really was. He was generous to people that he saw that were trying to make their way in show business. He was generous to me in so many ways where -- we've lost a good one, we really have.</s>ALLEN: Philbin's family says he died of natural causes a month shy of his 89th birthday.
