Was excellent in that role. Didn’t know he wrote plays.

Oh, too bad. He was so good in “The Right Stuff.”

Wow, I had no idea he had written so much. R.I.P.

Sad news. Didn’t know he was suffering from ALS. He made a great transition from playwright to movie actor. I particularly liked Days of Heaven and The Right Stuff. He was also good in Black Hawk Down. RIP.

And yet the ancient Chuck Yeager lives on.

RIP.

An engaging actor. Who couldn’t love his characters? No mention of love.

His days in Santa Fe with then wife Jessica Lang seemed a compatible fit.

Yeager outlived the younger actor who portrayed him. Amazing.

Sam Shepherd played a great role as Robert Rayburn in “Bloodline” (2015). Always one of my favorites. Rest in peace.

Oh no, so sad.

LOVED him in absolutely everything he did.

Terrific with Ellen Burstyn in RESURRECTION.

RIP sweet Sam. :’^(

Today, 73 years is not a dying age.

But ALS will shorten any life. 30 years ago ALS might have taken Sam at 63 years.

I really liked Sam’s work. Sorry to see him go.
