In 1980, Yung died at home from gas poisoning. His body was found 10 days later and the death was ruled accidental.
He is buried in Greenlawn Memorial Park, Colma, California, most likely under the name, Victor Sen Yung.
Pernell Roberts, the star of Bonanza, who also delivered the eulogy, paid his funeral expenses.
