March 4, 1994
Candy died of a massive heart attack in his sleep during location filming in Durango, Mexico, for the western comedy film Wagons East. Doctors found that Candy's fatal heart attack had been the result of a complete blockage of one of his coronary arteries. He was 43 years old.
Candy quit smoking prior to his death and was losing weight – fellow cast and crew on Wagons East even said he looked healthier than ever. Candy was warned by doctors several times to lose weight due to a genetic predisposition to heart disease, from which his father had died at the age of 35. Candy refused, and reportedly stated that his portly frame was what gave him his film roles. Despite this, there was public evidence that Candy was self-conscious about his appearance when, a few years before his death, he cancelled his appearance as host of an awards show for the CBC because the advertising campaign for the special poked fun at his weight.
Candy was survived by his widow, Rosemary Margaret (Hoban), whom he married in 1979, and their two children, Jennifer and Christopher. His funeral Mass was held at St. Michael's Cathedral, Toronto and was broadcast live across Canada. Candy is interred in the Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, California.
