Do you get the Variety emails too?

This is a shame indeed; He was one cool guy. I have many friends who'd worked with him recently and they thought he was all kinds of awesome.

Naw, I am not in the biz'.
I just picked it up scanning headlines & thought to pass it along.
BUMMER indeed, the type of guy who is in short supply any more, eh?
Working class fella, out of the anthracite mines of PA.
Former pro heavyweight boxer & purple heart recipient...
These types are dwindling to a precious few. >sigh<

I met him once. -Did a play with his granddaughter, she was my wife in the show(The Man Who Came To Dinner). He saw the show and I was introduced to him afterwards. A gentleman to the end, that fellow.

A man with a grand career -- will never forget him in Shane, playing that gunfighter with all the menace and grace of a rattlesnake, and, years later, parodying his screen persona in City Slickers.

And, of course, there was his "performance" on the Oscar show when he won the Academy Award.

Rest in Peace, Jack. We'll miss you.
