A statement from his family confirmed that he passed away peacefully at his home in Chicago.
Family spokesperson Jene Galvin told TMZ that Springer, real name Gerald, was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.
“He’s irreplaceable and his loss hurts immensely, but memories of his intellect, heart and humor will live on.” Springer then created his courtroom show, 'Judge Jerry,' which ran for three seasons. His final TV appearance came on last season's The Masked Singer, performing as 'The Beetle' to sing a Frank Sinatra Classic.
