Actor, comedian and Valhalla native Kevin Meaney died Friday, according to multiple news sources. He was 60 years old.

Meaney, perhaps most famous for the catchphrase “That’s not right!” was also known for his appearances on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, his stint on Saturday Night Live. He also appeared on Broadway in the musical Hairspray.

Meaney was a former altar boy at Cardinal Bernard Law, but found comedic fodder from sex abuse scandals in the Catholic Church.

“Let me just tell you one thing: I was never molested in Catholic school. I had to wait until I got to public school to get molested,” he told The Journal News in 2002.
