He will be missed -- I understand he got to drive on a race track once more before his death :)

I think a fitting departure message would be a quote from Butch Casady --- "I have an idea" ""lets go to Australia" :)

I did read a little while back that he was in a bad way

Rest in peace

A great actor, racing driver and all-round nice guy. He did manage to fit so much into his 83 years, we should not be too sad at his passing, he leaves a great legacy for generations of film fans to come.

As Larry King said
"One thing I like about him was, variety "
end quote

as people go... he was truley a virtuous man
he had a kind heart to the needy
and on the other didn't take any crap. and stood up for what was right
not just for what was popular.
