  1. I always remember him from the sitcom Good Times. I was probably 9 or 10 at the time. JJ Walker was super popular from that show.

  2. “Fitz! You old horse thief! You old muckety-muck!”

    A great presence and a fantastic addition to any project, but I’ll always think of him first as Admiral Percy Fitzwallace from The West Wing.

    RIP
