      B99 would not be anywhere near as good of a show without him. He was brilliant in his role.

    Like they said in the article, Homicide Life on the Street is where I remember him from. Lots of good actors and performances in that show, but he was a standout. RIP.

      But a good reminder of mortality to revitalize your spark in life! I hope he lived a good life and we certainly know that Captain Holt would have wanted us to use this reminder to make the best of what we have left.
