    One of the standby actors from my childhood, he was always a welcome sight in movies. As a person I never knew much about him, but I never heard of any drama around him. His addition to the Star Wars universe will be missed, he played a good and evolving character in the Mando show.

    RIP.

    I enjoyed his performances.

    Also, I hope I look half that good when I’m in my 70s.
