Dick Assman, the Regina gas station worker whose surname led to a brief stint on David Letterman's late-night talk show, has died at age 82.
Assman, who was born in Neudorf, Sask., in 1934, died on Monday.
He worked as a manager, mechanic and gas attendant at service stations in Saskatchewan his whole life.
In the summer of 1995, Assman became an instant celebrity when the Late Show host took an interest in his name.
