- Dan's younger brother, Peter, passed away recently at the age of 66. It was mentioned during SNL last Saturday but I missed it. SNL has a twitter and they posted one of Peter's skits from 1980. Peter was only on SNL for one season after Dan had already left the show.

Here's a pic from what must be the episode when Chevy came back to host ...
Peter, of course, on the right playing a model in that bit.
I remember seeing Peter in a movie called "Gas" which had Donald Sutherland in it. It was about a gas shortage, there were lots of car crashes and stuff and I remember thinking Peter did a fine job in his role. Oh, well here's the entire movie it's from 1981 ...
RIP Peter Aykroyd.

Dan Aykroyd confirmed to USA TODAY through his publicist Susan Patricola that his brother died from "septicemia from an internal infection precipitated by an untreated abdominal hernia."
