I cannot link, but Louis Gossett Jr. He was such a force.

Aw. He was so funny on SCTV. I mean, he was funny everywhere, but SCTV was a staple of my youth.

One of my favorite playwrights, Christopher Durang, has passed away at age 75. I had the privilege of seeing his play Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All for You in the early 80s on Lynn Redgrave's opening night in L.A. At one point, Redgrave's Sister Mary has a young boy, played by eight-year-old Chad Allen, read out a list of people who are going to hell. On the list was Zsa Zsa Gabor, who was sitting in the third row, and had arrived fashionably late, so everyone in the audience knew she was there. Little Chad was a true professional, delivered that line with a small smile, and calmly waited till the hysterical audience had regained its composure. One of my favorite theater moments.

I didn’t know CJ Snare, but I used to see Allen Mackenzie (bass) and Tony Avitar (FOH sound) flying out to Firehouse gigs all the time whenever we shared a Delta flight out of Akron/Canton airport.
RIP, CJ.
