At the time of his death, he had appeared in two of the five West Wing episodes then in post-production – "Running Mates" and "The Cold." His death was subsequently written into the show, as his character, vice presidential candidate McGarry, died of a heart attack on election night. Coincidentally, his character had a disconcerting history of heart problems. West Wing cast mate Kristin Chenoweth sang the musical number For Good from the hit Broadway musical Wicked, which she starred in, at his funeral.
