This was one talented man.  I'll never forget his performance in "An Officer and a Gentleman".  RIP.

Sad news. He was such a great actor!

What an illustrious career he had, crowned by Best Supporting Actor Oscar for "An Officer and a Gentleman",  among many other awards.

He was part of the terrific cast of Lorraine Hansberry's landmark play "A Raisin in the Sun",  both on Broadway and the film version, along with two other greats, the radiant young Ruby Dee, and Sidney Poitier.

 RIP.

I sure hate to hear this news.  I always loved him in any movie he was in.  Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.💝🌸

Hollywood has indeed lost a treasure!💖💝 He gave a POWERFUL performance as Fiddler with such a beautiful spirit in Roots! His portrayal of SGT. FOLEY was riveting in An Officer and a Gentleman, and he RIGHTLY deserved the Oscar for best supporting actor he received in that role! ❤ I just cannot think of that movie and not think of his esteemed accomplishment !💝💝 I am sending heartfelt prayers of solace to all who knew and loved him.🙏🙏 He will be missed.❤

May his beloved soul rest in peace💝💝

~~~All we need is LOVE💖
