Yea, that's the first thing I thought. He always seemed to be in a panic (playing the role). Now he's got nothing to worry about. RIP

ANOTHER famous person dies at 61? I lost count of how many times that someone famous dies this year between ages 60 and 65...or just famous people in general. Yesterday Neil Fingleton croaked at 36, and over the weekend Daryl Easton bit the dust at 61. And a few others whose names I can't recall.

RIP

(also I watched Apollo 13 about a week or two ago. Good film!)

I was actually watching Apollo 13 just before I saw the news story. At first I thought it was clickbait. One of the few times I wish it was.
