Oh no, not another beloved actor gone... James Garner. CNN's obit. I loved him most in the Rockford Files series, but of course he did so much else. Rest in Peace, good buddy, Rest in Peace. Another meowsigh :( "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I'm sad to hear this. Loved the Rockford Files, of course. I'd like to read his memoir - The Garner Files. I was just looking at his work, and apparently he was in Fire in the Sky, a sci-fi film in the early 90's I vaguely remember seeing. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Indeed Maverick and the Rockford files were two of my favourite TV programs. RIP |

One of my favorite actors. RIP Bob DeWoody My motto: Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow as it may not be required. This no longer applies in light of current events. |

I liked his role as "The Scrounger" in the Great Escape. He must have enjoyed that role as he was his company's scrounger in Korea. R.I.P. |

RIP Mr. Garner. I enjoyed all of his roles. As a kid I loved watching Maverick. As an adult I loved him in The Rockford Files. I didnt know he was a Koeran vet either. [/quote] Old James |
