The guy was flat out great in every part, no matter how small. Loved him in Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Ghost. "Get off my train!!!"

Amazing how many movie and TV credits he has.

    He was one of those odd characters that you see on TV and enjoy. I will remember him from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "Ghost". RIP.

    A classic "that guy" that seems to be in every movie and nail every role he got. Shame.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
