Very sad to have heard the news. We all knew his health had been failing for several years - but like Jonathan Frid, you just kind of expect them to be around forever. He was always a pleasure to be around every time I met him at the fests. He was also one who attended fests out of kinship to his fellow actors and appreciation for the fans and had no interest in selling photos or merchandise. A fine actor who deserves his share of credit for the success of Dark Shadows. Will definitely be missed.
