The underlying causes for Wendt were listed as congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease and hypertension. He also suffered from kidney failure and high cholesterol, outlets noted from the document issued by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.

Wendt’s body was cremated May 28, eight days after he reportedly died in his sleep at age 76, according to the certificate.
