Dresslar was an entertainer and singer for nearly six decades. But his voice rang through millions of households when he sang the simple refrain, Ho, Ho, Ho in an ad jingle for Green Giant Foods.
He recorded 15 albums with The Singers Unlimited jazz group and appeared on the CBS television show In Town Tonight from 1955 to 1960.
He and his wife, Dorothy, retired to Palm Springs in 1991.
He periodically re-recorded the “Ho, Ho, Ho” for Jolly Green Giant commercials, most recently about 10 years ago.
Dresslar died Oct. 16, 2005 of cancer.
