Bill Skiles, 79, half of the comedy team of Skiles and Henderson. Most of their humor was improvised, with Pete Henderson trying to tell a story amid Skiles' nutty distractions and digressions. They had a 50-year career that brought TV appearances with Ed Sullivan, Dean Martin, Rowan and Martin and Bob Hope.  They also appeared on Johnny Carson, Mike Douglas, Merv Griffin shows.
