Ferrante, 88, died Saturday at his familiar with on Longboat Key. As his health failed in recent years, he told friends he wanted to live to 88, one year for every key on a piano.

"He was a very fervid man in whatever he did," said Scott W. Smith, the duo's manager. "If he was your friend, he was your friend for life; if he was writing music, it was the best imaginable arrangement he could write."

Teicher died in August 2008.

Highlights of the duo's career included several Top 10 hits in the 1960s with overwrought renditions of movie themes such as "The Apartment," "Exodus," "Cleopatra" and "Midnight Cowboy."

The hits earned them spots on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and "The Tonight Show," among others.

Fans included Presidents Kennedy, Nixon and Reagan, who invited them to function at the White House.
