Oh

Actor Jack Klugman dies in Los Angeles
Jack Klugman, the prolific, craggy-faced character actor and regular guy who was loved by millions as the messy one in TV's The Odd Couple and the crime-fighting coroner in Quincy, M.E., died Monday, a son said. He was 90.

Klugman, who lost his voice to throat cancer in the 1980s and trained himself to speak again, died with his wife at his side.

"He had a great life and he enjoyed every moment of it and he would encourage others to do the same," son Adam Klugman said.

Jack Klugman apparently died suddenly, and family members were not sure of the exact cause.
I really enjoyed Jack Klugman in both "The Odd Couple" and "Quincy, M.E.", mainly because he brought his characters to life and made me care about them.

May his soul be bound up in the bond of life.
