Sad....he was a really good actor. His work in Roots will always have a special place in film history.

I loved his acting in Good Times and I still watch the reruns.

He was such a good actor and so handsome too!

I will never forget watching Roots. At the time it seemed the enitre nation was watching it together.

He was a wonderful actor; so talented.

May he rest in eternal peace...

Terrific role as Gordy Howard "The Weatherman" on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, his first big show!

Sadly, one of the last cast members from MTM, along with Joyce Bulifant.

About a week or so ago, I saw him and Florida on Maude. That was how Good Times got the spin off from James getting a raise and Florida was finally able to quit her job and be a stay at home Mom. It was so strange watching him on Two and Half Men being the life partner of Stacy Keach. They were cute together.
John was an excellent actor.
