ET breaks news that "Everybody Loves Raymond" star PETER BOYLE died Tuesday night after a long battle with heart disease and multiple myeloma, a cancer of the bone marrow. He was 71. Multiple myeloma patients must often undergo a painful bone marrow transplant to combat the disease. Boyle passed away in the care of New York Presbyterian Hospital. The Emmy Award-winning actor is survived by his wife, LORAINE and daughters LUCY and AMY. Boyle’s many feature films include ‘Monster’s Ball,’ ‘Young Frankenstein,’ ‘Taxi Driver,’ ‘While You Were Sleeping’ and ‘Dr. Dolittle.’ He can most recently be seen in the holiday flim ‘The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause’ with TIM ALLEN and MARTIN SHORT.
