RIP ERNEST BORGNINE 1917-2012

The man whos acting career spanned over 60 years has passed away at the age of 95. Borgnine starred in literally hundreds of films and TV shows in his 6 decade career including my personal favorites Willard and Hannie Caulder. These two films I have never forgotten and never will.
I remember watching McHale's Navy every morning before I went to school when I was a kid and that show always got me in a good mood for the day.
Ernest always had a smile on his face and was just happy to be working as an actor. He never wanted to be in a spotlight and hog the stardom.
A gentleman, and actor and all round good guy. He will be truely missed.

    Hands down, one of the most likable actors ever. Ernie was the kind of guy everyone wished they had for an Uncle. 95 years was too short for someone of his talent... Rest in Peace, Big Guy.
