Abe Vigoda at 94 - Fish in Barney Miller, Tessio in the Godfather and many minor roles. A good innings. RIP.

Remember him well from the Godfather, but never knew his name. R.I.P.

Sorry. He was big, big mates with Jim Morrison.

Kantner himself was severely Ill in 1980 & had said after that every day was a bonus.

Gotcha - 36 years ain't a bad addition from the point you reach "every day is a bonus"... :-)

RIP Wogan too. Eurovision will never be the same.

Music-wise, the Eurovision died away for me and I rarely watch it now. Terry Wogan made it great entertainment. He knew how to take the micky in funny ways that didn't offend and had a brilliant sense of humour and a great gift of ad-libbing. A likeable and funny man who always brought cheer to everything he did in his radio and T.V work. R.I.P smiley man, you'll be sadly missed by a lot of folk.

R.I.P to to local actor Frank Finlay also.

A year ago .... but, yes, oddly being reported today.

I added it to my post after seeing Clapton's. An R.I.P is never lost though, so I left it.

Not sure where you might have got that from. Even his own biography page reports it as being today as does every other source I can find.
