Last thing I remember him from was a small role from Into the Wild.

Love him. We have been losing a lot of great ones lately

Wow I had not idea he was 95!

Wow I had not idea he was 95!

He was always ones of those actors mentioning his name caused one to think "He's still alive?"

I'll strike my comment about Into the Wild being the time I remember him acting. He did a voice role of an older fire truck in Planes: Fire & Rescue.

I can't believe no one has mentioned what he was most famous for - 52 years of performing Mark Twain Tonight! I saw him in it as a teenager. I thought I would be bored. I wasn't.

Saw him playing Mark Twain in his one man show when he performed at my university. Marvelous!

I will also remember him for his role as Captain Lloyd Bucher of the USS Pueblo - captured by the North Koreans in 1968.

Was great in Creepshow.

I was thinking Lincoln in the North and South miniseries.

That's sad... I actually remember watching Into the Wild within the last couple weeks.

I remember him as the wise old stock market guy that tried to give Charlie Sheen in the movie Wall Street (1987)
