Waymond Lee, best known for his role in Comedy Central’s “Workaholics,” has died. He was 72. TMZ was the first to report the news and received confirmation of Waymond Lee’s passing via his wife, Diane Lee, and his sister, Norine Lee.

The actor died Dec. 18 after a long battle with ALS, otherwise known as Lou Gerigs Disease, a nervous system affliction that breaks down the nerves in the body, causing the muscles to weaken.

Lee was first diagnosed with a brain disease in October but testing earlier this month revealed it was ALS. Waymond Lee appeared in 44 episodes of the Emmy-nominated comedy “Workaholics” as Waymond, an often silent and unassuming co-worker of the show’s main trio of odd-ball roommates.

The workplace sitcom ran for 86 episodes from 2011-2017, and followed three southern Californian slackers played by Blake Anderson, Adam Devine and Anders Holm, who, as a collective, were waggishly labeled the “Workaholics.” According to TMZ, Waymond Lee’s family described him as a “sentimental person” with a soft heart who never openly complained about working long hours.
