George Burns died 27 years ago.
I'm guessing this comic was written before 1996, when George Burns died at ~100 years old... his last movie was in 1994.
This is akin to the Betty White jokes being told up until her recent death.

Ended his stage career after a bath injury in 1994. Caught a cold at Frank Sinatra's Christmas party a month before his 100th birthday, and never fully recovered.
