The "Carol Burnett Show" star was known for his deadpan comic delivery, which would make his castmates weep with laughter. During his career, he won four Emmys for his work on "Burnett" and two more for guest appearances on "Coach" and "30 Rock."
Stars were quick to take to social media to remember the comedy legend, including "Night Court" actress and comedian Marsha Warfield, who shared a news story about his death with a simple message.
"Rest in peace," she wrote.
Comedian Larry Wilmore tweeted, "RIP to Tim Conway who was always always always always funny!"
Al Jean, a writer and producer on "The Simpsons," praised Conway's humor along with a photo of his character from the long-running animated series.
"RIP Tim Conway a man who always made everyone in my family laugh," he wrote.
Sci-fi author John Scalzi wrote a lengthier message about Conway's passing.
"This makes me sad. I was a big fan of his when I was a little kid. And my own kid got to know him through SpongeBob Squarepants," he wrote. "Delighting generations is a pretty good legacy for any entertainer. RIP, Tim Conway."
