The prolific writer, director and Ghostbusters star died Feb. 24 at 69 from complications related to autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis, a rare disease that involves swelling of the blood vessels. Ramis got his start working alongside John Belushi at Second City. After leaving the comedy troupe, he wrote a script with National Lampoon magazine's Douglas Kenney, which later became National Lampoon's Animal House. He went on to co-write Meatballs, followed by Caddyshack, which he also directed, and Ghostbusters with Dan Akyroyd. Ramis' other film credits include Groundhog Day, High Fidelity and Knocked Up. His final film, in which he appeared and directed, was 2009's Year One starring Jack Black and Michael Cera.
