From his first ever guest (Bill Murray) in 1982 to that time he interviewed Boris Johnson about the Islamic State, Letterman has been making the whole world laugh as a stalwart of US late-night TV.
Before the world's most committed satirist takes over the show, celebrities, brands and politicians who grew up watching Letterman took the opportunity to pay tribute.
