He of the deep voice and perfect enunciation.

He died on April 11, surprised there's no thread on him. One of those familiar faces that everyone knows.

I haven't seen much that he was in, unfortunately, but I loved him on Soap, and in the guest appearances he did on The Cosby Show and Will & Grace. And what a voice!

He voiced The Kingpin on the 90's animated Spider-Man show.

His most perfect role was that of Mister Nightlinger in the 1972 film 'The Cowboys'. He was absolutely perfect in that part...he'll certainly be missed!

I grew up watching him in the 70's and his voice was pure gold.

That's too bad. I really liked him.

He was in one of the best episode of All in the Family, the one where Archie is stuck in an elevator.

I noticed that too, a sad end to a brilliant career. Although I'm almost tempted to watch that movie, just to hear him narrate it. Almost.
