Another cultural touchstone of my childhood ripped away. RIP.
It's interesting how you tend to remember certain actors the way they were, and don't really think about how long it's been since you first saw them in that impression-making role(s), until they DO pass, and you're like "What? He/she was only X years"--or better, "He/she was actually X years now? Had no idea..."
cheers,
