January 7, 2025 -
My uncle (mother’s half brother) was Hollywood actor Nicky Katt, and we are dealing with his estate over the upcoming month or two. As a service to him and his fans, I’d like to answer any questions anybody has about him, his career, his death, and what the plan is concerning his end-of-life arrangements. I will try to update this as much as possible as I get new information.
Edit: To clarify, I’m answering a lot of these questions as a proxy for my mother who was in regular contact with him and met up with him many times over the last 40 years. She is not the best with Reddit, so I am doing it for/with her. I did not want to make my original post “my mother is Nicky Katt’s sister.”
