Will Mastin

Will Mastin (June 20, 1878 – March 14, 1979), also credited as Will Maston, was a dancer and singer.

Howard M. Colbert Jr. was the tap-dance teacher of Sammy Davis Jr., who treated him much as an uncle.

Sammy Davis Jr. was 16 years old at this time and became part of the main vaudeville act, replacing Colbert.

Will Mastin died on March 14, 1979, at age 100, according to the California Death Index.

He is interred at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California, near Sammy Davis Sr. and Sammy Davis Jr.[2] The epitaph on his tomb says only: He Was A Vaudevillian, it does not provide birth and death dates.
