Wow. Although this was coming for such a long time now considering his bad health the last couple of years, it still comes as a surprise. After Sheard, Hollis, Boa and Diamond the Star Wars but especially the general movie community has lost a true legend. A lovely, kind man with a wonderful and truly interesting personal history. Rest in peace!
