Sad to see this. The man was supremely talented.

Sigh, well someone I'm 'friends' with on fbook, (he was like the 'Andrus' of a now defunct Saints forum I was also a part of), decided to put on his tin foil hat and speculate that because of Lance's age/physical fitness, there must be a connection to the vaccine... Cue the facepalm...

Sad to hear this. I am a big fan. Curious - They say his death was age related.? 60 is almost the new 45. Wonder what age related thing got him.

Well, for one, coronary artery disease can be asymptomatic until it's very serious...

Loved that guy in every role that he was cast. The stoic, professional demeanor of the Continental Hotel Concierge set the tone to make the "John Wick Universe" believable.

He was great on The Wire. Kinda shocked to see him gone at 60. He looked pretty healthy last I saw. Guess you never know when it's your time. RIP

I started a new run of Horizon: Forbidden West a couple days ago since there's an add-on coming out this month. He voices one of the main characters, so hearing him talk on an audio log gave me a quick case of sads.

Hm, I think I know where that is, I don't think his name was there though. I'll have to check it out.

His role as Lt. Daniels on the Wire as well as his recurring horror character AHS Haitain Vodou god of the afterlife, Papa Legba, were probably his two most well-known movie/TV characters.

His supporting role as Charon in the John Wick films were really memorable, too.

He even did a great job portraying a Naval Adm. court-martial head in a recent, posthumous performance in the Caine Mutiny Court Martial HBO special, a 2023 remake of Humphrey Bogart's famous Caine Mutiny.
