Have any actors’ deaths saddened you personally?

Asked by Austinlad (16323points) September 13th, 2010

I just read that Kevin McCarthy has passed away at 96. He was the actor in the original INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS who runs down the street screaming “You’re next!” at approaching cars (and did a cameo in the remake years later). His death saddened me because that’s one of my favorite sci-fi movies, and because I had followed McCarthy’s career since his Actor’s Studio days. Many other actors’ deaths have especially touched me. I remember shedding tears in a supermarket parking lot when the radio announced Jimmy Stewart had died. I felt the same way about Welles, Brando and Sinatra. How about you? Any actors whose deaths in your lifetime especially saddened you?
