Sad news, although at least he had a good, long life doing what he loved.

Seems to have been a lovely bloke and a great actor. Wallace will be timeless.

Met him in the atrium in Trump Tower having a coffee and pastry when i worked there back in 91.  His wife was really nice, he seemed to have a bit of a grump on - probably because he thought he'd never be spotted in such a sprawling metropolis. I have his autograph somewhere.

“Generosity always pays off. Generosity in your effort, in your work, in your kindness, in the way you look after people and take care of people. In the long run, if you are generous with a heart, and with humanity, it always pays off.”
