The Second City will never forget one of its most accomplished alumni — Harold Ramis. The improv and sketch comedy theatre has release a moving tribute video to Ramis, who passed away Feb. 24th.
Ramis gained fame for writing and starring in some of the most recognizable comedies of the 1980s and 90s, including Ghostbusters
, Caddyshack and Groundhog Day. Second City decided to remember Ramis in his early days, reflecting on his fondest memories of performing on stage with other comedy legends like John Belushi and Bill Murray.
The video is comprised of footage from The Second City 50th anniversary and features photos from Ramis' years as a burgeoning comedian. Ramis offers many bits of humorous wisdom to the audience, such as "I now tell students, identify the most talented person in the room, and if it's not you, go stand next to them." The moving memorial is the perfect encapsulation of Ramis' wit and warm personality.
