#VontaeDavis, #LouisGossettJr, #ChancePerdomo, #JoeFlaherty, #BarbaraRush, #JenniferLeak, #RIP
❤ RIP to my Father. He passed away 4/3/24. ❤
Sorry for your loss. Every life is important. ❤
I’m sorry to hear that. RIP to your dad
My condolences. 🙏❤️🕊️
Sincere sympathies to you and your family
God bless, mate. Losing a parent is perhaps the toughest ❤
I met Lou Gossett Jr. in 2007, and up until now, the most down to 🌏, humblest, nicest celebrity I've ever met, Godspeed sir...🙏🏽
I also met him. And you are so right about him!
What a great encounter, and bless you both ❤️
🙏🏾🙏🏾🕊️
I have heard that said but by just listening to him in interviews, the way he speaks his overall demeanor I believe it. He always comes off as a good person. May he rest in peace
@@carolharris2401God rest his soul. 🙏🏾
I always loved Lou Gossett jr smile. He had the most beautiful smile.
His smile illuminated any room he graced.
Thank you Lou Contor for being a US Solider & last survivor of the attack at Pearl Harbor on 12/7/1941. God Bless ✝️ you & Rest in Eternal Paradise.
Just a slight correction here: Lou Conter was the last surviving crew member of the USS Arizona, rather than the last survivor of the attack on Pearl Harbor. But our eternal gratitude to him and the other men and women that have protected our freedoms with their lives - heroes all!
What a handsome 20 year old, who had his entire world changed forever in a single day. God bless his soul.✨
They call them soldiers in the Navy, Sailors.

Lou Gossett, so many great movies! RIP
😢😢😢
Sorry for your loss😢😢😢😢
Best performance in Jaws 3D out of the actors in that film
Yes, sitcoms Sanford and Son; Good Times.
Barbara Rush, a beauty of the ages. Timeless. RIP dear lady.
She was indeed a beauty!
Yes, I cried when I saw this! Just can't believe she's gone!😢😢😢 So very sad!
She was underrated , a great actress
I was a fan of Lou Gossett Jr after seeing him in Enemy Mine, and such respect after An Officer and a Gentleman. This is the hardest part of the years passing, having to watch people you care for pass.
Every film Lou Gosset was in was soulful. He was a wonderful human. 🙏🏼🤍🦅
Another iconic actor gone. Louis Gosset Jr. was one of the best. I loved him in an officer and a gentleman, he also had a comic side such as staring on the Jeffersons. One of the greatest of my generation. ❤️ ♥️ rest in peace 🙏🏽
Watch Enemy Mine. He was wonderful in that movie.
He also played in Good Times.
The first movie that I saw Louis Gossett in was "The Skin Game" a comedy that turned into a drama. 😊
@demo179 Yeah, he did!
RIP Lou Conter. Thank you for being an incredible American! Thank you for your service 🌈🙏🇺🇸
Thank you for your service Mr Conter. God bless from the son of my late father who served in the British Navy/Fleet Arm WW11. 🇺🇲❤
Can’t imagine what he went to bed with each night after surviving the Arizona explosion. RIP kind sir.
To those who died in the line of duty, I give my sincere thanks for your service and my condolences to your families. 👩🚒👮♂️🎖🇺🇸
👍🙏
Barbra Rush was a real beauty...Loved her in Flamingo Road ...
I had the pleasure of meeting Lou Gossett jr at Dragon Con some years ago. He was so gracious.
I will remember Lou Gossett Jr from his very memorable performance as Joe the bounty hunter in one of the best episodes of Alias Smith & Jones
Me, too. Wasn't that a good episode?
I tried to thank you once already for making me remember Alias & Smith.
Per usual the panties bunched. I wish they would dig up the series. I remember the dark haired guy committed suicide, sad..
Lou Gossett Jr. Omgoodness always a favorite. May he Rest Easy.
He was EXCELLENT in 'The Officer and a Gentleman'.
Mayo-naise!!
My mother used to say: the young will die; and the old must die. Sadly, there were as many young ppl who died, as the old.
RIP Louis Gossett, great actor. Barbara Rush. I've seen many of her movies. And all those mentioned, on their Remember anniversaties. Everyone Rest in Peace.🕊💐🕊
I was very sad to hear about Louis Gossett Jr. He was always one of my favorite actors of the 80's.
He was awesome loved him in an officer and a gentleman and his other work as well
I worked with Lou Gossett on a 1990's TV movie called "Flashfire", costarring Billy Zane. The movie sucked the absolute root, but both Zane and Gossett were a pleasure and a joy to work with. I never had the opportunity to work with either of them again, but I never heard a bad thing about them.
Wow. Absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I liked Lou Gossett Jr. RIP brother!
Thank you again Legacy for your accuracy.
Sorry to hear about Barbara Rush, Jennifer Leak, and Lynn Loring. I always enjoyed watching them perform.
Another great and humble actor has passed. Lou Gossett Jr. your work lives on, generations will know you because of it❤❤.RIP.
May they all rest peacefully and eternally in the arms of Jesus. ❤️🕊️🙏
😔🙏❤️
Not mentioned was singer Norah Lee Allen, wife of Oakridge Boys lead vocalist Duane Allen. She was a former member of the Grand Ole Opry staff as one of the Opry Singers. She passed away after a long illness Easter Sunday morning at 82
R.I.P. Lou Gosset and Joe Flaherty. Lou was a great pioneer of tv and movies, with strong conviction.
Joe always made me laugh out loud.
Thank you Legacy, for another distinguished and dignified obituary.
My daddy’s Alzheimer’s journey ended at age 88 on March 17😢.I had the privilege and honor to be his full time caregiver for his last 7 years.
I am relieved that he no longer has to suffer the indignities of dementia 😔. 11:32
You have a great attitude! He was lucky tohave you
@@lazyhomebody1356 daddy and I worked in his vegetable garden and grew flowers.
We enjoyed sitting in front of his trailer in our backyard admiring the results of our hard work.
He loved going out and picking fresh veggies, cucumbers, tomatoes, green peppers, onions and squash.
Last Summer his Alzheimer’s had robbed his memory of how to even plant the vegetables.
I planted and he “ cultivated “the plants, which ended up with him hoeing them right out of the ground.
I waited until he was in bed and I’d go pull the dirt off the plants and replant them.
We enjoyed watching westerns, especially Bonanza, and rodeos and travelogues of Wyoming because from 13-16 he worked on ranches and rode in rodeos.
Many precious memories to comfort me🥹
I always feel so strange clicking on the like because I do not like that these folks no long walk among us. I do, however, like that you inform us every week and you do it with grace and respect. Goodbye dear ones, fly high Lou and keep it classy Barbara! All will be missed!
Rest in Heavenly Peace, Louis Gossett, Jr. You were the last of a rare quality of actors. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with the world. 👊🏾
Lou Gossett jr was a hoot as a special guest star on the ROCKFORD FILES! He was great!
I was thinking that Mr. Gossett was on "The Rockford Files". Didn't he also team up with James Garner for a movie before "Rockford Files"? I don't know if I remember correctly, though. Great actor will be missed.
Always called Jimmy "Rockfish!"
@@1ams0-dumB24 Skin Game (1971) Gossett and Garner starred in together
@@1ams0-dumB24Yep, "The Skin Game" Garner went around selling him as a slave and then stealing him back. Ed Asner plays a slave trader. It is a great film.
Thank You for telling me the title!! I don't remember the last time I saw it but I really enjoyed it. Need to see it again.
I remember Joe Flahrety as "Count Floyd" on "The Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley". Loved that show.
One of my favorite movies starring Louis Gossett Jr. is "Sudie and Simpson". I bought the DVD.
RIP.
Rip Louis Gossett great black actor live in my town Fayetteville, Georgia
Louis gossett jr was an amazing actor may he rest in eternal life ❤❤❤
Joe Flaherty thanks for all the laughs you gave us...
RIP💙🙏💙
Joe was the Western Union employee that delivered a telegram to Marty McFly.at the end.of Back to the Future 2. He and the whole crew were hilarious on SCTV.
Great actor L. Gossett.
So sad to hear Lou Gossett has died. He was a great actor.
Louis Gossett Jr. guest started as Wilbur on Good Times, and George Jefferson's Navy buddy on The Jeffersons.
In another Good Times episode, Lou Gossett Jr also played Thelma's older boyfriend.
@@GeminiladyJackson-xq6hc Thank you for telling me about it, I've forgotten that episode.
@@waynetubbs3809Lou Gossett Jr. also appeared with Richard Pryor in an episode of The Partridge Family.
I was just watching Enemy Mine on the day Louis died. I was just thinking about that movie a day before and decided to watch it the next day. After I watched it. I turned on RUclips and they said he had died. That was crazy
R.I.P to all of these people and that we've lost.
Enemy Mine. I loved that movie !
Everyone remembers Lou Gosset Jr and he goes all the way back to A Raisin in the Sun with Sidney Pointer but few probably remember Barbara Rush who was always a beautiful woman.
Barbara Rush was so talented but some of the roles she was given were not enough to let her shine. I liked her in the Young Philadelphians, Strangers when we Meet, and Flamingo Road. I just saw her in a role last week where she played a kooky witch on episode of Ironside. Quite a different character for her.
My favourite film of Lou Gossett Jr is IRON EAGLE
R.I.P "Chappy" 🙏🙏
Jo Flaherty is a hard one. He was such a huge part of my childhood. 😭 He will be missed. RIP
I loved him in Happy Gilmore
@@samueledward5078 Was much better on SCTV!
I loved Joe Flaherty and SCTV. He was wonderful to watch. RIP.
I loved Rocco
RIP Joe💙🙏💙
@@leanneb9529 Yes! He was hilarious, but Guy was my fav !😄
We miss you Count Floyd ❤❤
@@stephenmoran1100 Yes!
Thanks for sharing Barbara Rush just now know she passed everyone rest in peace 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 5:57
Joe Flaherty was a comic genius... his character imitations and characterizations are iconic.. if you've never seen SCTV, I suggest digging up past shows somewhere and give them a watch. Here's to you Guy... I'll always remember you..
R.I.P. Lou Gossett Jr. Loved him in Jaws 3 R.I.P. to all🙏😢
Damn, Chance is in the 27 Club now. I really hate that. Lou Gossett really hurts, a fine actor.
Thank you for this channel !!
I love all of Louis Gossett jr movies especially officer and Gentlemen and the Iron eagle series of movies and he was good in the movie Roots
Marvin's dad ended his life and got away with it. He abused his family. But blamed Marvin. RIP Marvin
Marvin Gaye would have qualified for both his birth and passing
And yes, the dad got away with his murder because of his age
Yea his Dad was jealous of his own son
Yeah.😡
Blamed it on a brain tumor, but his wife divorced him with a quickness. He took a great and talented man using the gun his son bought at the house his son owned. I still remember what I was doing when I heard it happened
I do, too. Such a, great and unnecessary loss, way before his time @@idkwhodidthis2990
You always knew when Barbara Rush was in a movie that she would have to cry.
Barbara Rush also portrayed the enchanting character of Elizabeth Knight on television's Knight Rider in 1982/1983, in the two part episode entitled Goliath, alongside her villainous son, Garth Knight.
RIGHT
Lou Gossett jr. My first time seeing him was as Gordon on Sesame Street, then on the TV show Powers of Matthew Star, movies such as iron eagles and enemy mine.
Such an amazing talent gone too soon.
Wasnt aware of Louis G...rip Louis, well done mate,...well done!!love Enemy Mine!!😑🥃✌️
I didn’t hear about Lou gusset! He’s a legendary actor. Surprising a bigger deal wasn’t made about it.
Yep. He died last Friday. It was announced shortly after last week's video had posted
So sad to hear about Joe Flaherty.
Joe's character, "Harold Weir" on Freaks and Geeks is one of my favorite TV dads.
Lou G Jr was great in Iron eagle and the principal, two of my favorite childhood movies
Joe Flahery one of the great sketch comedians of all time! Sammy Maudlin, the Count, and so on.
Never forget Latino singer Selena Quintanilla Perez, actor Heath Legter, & Dr. Martin Luther King 👑 Jr as they're remembered this week. Rest in Eternal Paradise
I really enjoy your channel and RIP TO ALL.
Layne Staley front man for Alice In Chains and Mad Season died 22 years ago today, 5 April 2002.
So sad to hear that so many died "in the line of duty" heroes in their own right RIP 🙏🏼
My two most favorite movies that Louis Gossett Jr. starred in were Iron Eagle and Left Behind III World At War.
life too short. File your social security retirement at 62. 🎉❤
I did
Good advice my friend. 🙂
Just remember when you do! You automatically take a 30% cut from your full retirement age!
When my Dad filed at 62, they tried to convince him to wait til he was 65. He told them he wouldn't live til 65. He didn't. File at 62, I agree.
My mother in law, took it at 62, they took 30 percent right away she was getting $934.00 in 2006, now she's up to $1103.00 and it now goes to a retirement home.
We lost many greats this week.
I just wanted to add that Barbara Rush, also did a lot of community theater.
Back in the 60s, my parents frequently went on dates from the Chicago area to Wisconsin, to see Ms. Rush in one play or another.
Barbara Rush was a down- to-earth, kind-hearted, sophisticated lady who just happened to be an excellent actress.
RIP Ms. Rush.
living to 114 is a long life
One of my neighbors in harlem passed at 114 in 2019. She was a very nice lady. Outlived her son, her granddaughter and 2 great grandsons.
@@thankthelord4536 wow 114 i wouldnt like to see my son pass away though
Can you imagine?
RIP to my Dad, Marlin A. Kinna. He died 16 years ago on April 8, 2008. I miss you, Dad.❤
This may have been an oversight but seeing how you mentioned Kurt Cobain dying on April 5, 1994, you forgot to mention Alice in Chains lead singer Layne Staley also died on April 5, 2002 at his home in Seattle Washington.
Lou gosset jr had a smile that could melt any girls heart
Bye Lou 🙏 Rest in Peace
Yes.😔🙏❤️
I had the unbelievable pleasure of sitting in the Luxury box at Fenway park with Larry Lucchino. I had no idea who he was, he was a friend of my friend that got us in the box. I was in full Yankees gear, hat and t shirt. Mr Lucchino was so kind to me
😮 You're lucky you made it out alive! Full Yankees gear?! 😂
@@lazyhomebody1356 I think the fact that the Red Sox were savagely beating the Yankees helped. 🤪
@@charlesbaldo LMAO
That picture of Barbara Rush with an 8 mm movie projector, and bookshelf behind her really hit home. Our family home looked very similar. A lot of time has gone under the bridge. She was very pretty.
Dying from complications from aphasia scared me, I didn't know that was possible.
You can't from aphasia itself but you can from the cause of the aphasia which could be a stroke or a brain injury.
Most likely from brain injury.
My uncle served on the USS Arizona in the 1930's , he was Admiral George McFadden O'Rear and also commanded the USS Arkansas during the battle of Iwo Jima.
Much thanks for his service.
❤️🇺🇸💝
Some of these great folks are elderly and some are quite young, it should remind us we can be called Home at any time and always tell our loved ones how we feel.
08:09 - That Pic Of Barbara Baldavin is from Star Trek "Turnabout Intruder". The final TOS Episode.
Since Njchelle Nichols was unavailable, they cast Barbara as the Comm Officer. Of course, in the 1st season, she was in "Balance of Terror" You may recall 2 other episodes where Uhura was absent so the Comm Officer was "Lt.Palmer" played by the beautiful Elizabeth Rogers!!!
Thanks. ✌🏻👊🏼
Lou Gossett jr was truly a great actor, may all who passed RIP 😢💔🙏
Sharing Brando's birthday was America's sweetheart the lovely Doris Day, 102 years ago. Passed away May 2019 ❤
Surprised the Narrator didn’t mention that Lynn Loring was once married to Roy Thinnes from the 60’s series The Invaders. She was a lovely lady, R.I.P.
Barbra Rush..... Rest in Peace dear lady! An original leading lady from old Hollywood,one of most beautiful and talented ever! Godspeed...BR!
Prayers to all. 🙏
Thank You for Sharing 😌✌️✌️
Thanks 😊 for being a reputable site for these announcements...Trust goes along way ❤RIP TOO ALL THESE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE❤ ❤❤❤❤❤
So sad to hear about Mr. Delahunt - we adopted our daughter from another country, and the Child Citizen Act that he promoted has benefited many, many families by making adoption (and US citizenship for the adopted children) so much easier. Rest in Peace, sir.
Barbara Rush was so pretty
Chaaapppiiieee!!! RIP Louis Gosset jr one of my faves!
Oh no, I love SCTV! I'll miss you Guy Caballero. RIP Joe.
R.I.P to all! 😢😢😢😢
I was lucky enough to hear Mike Kolen give a Valentine’s Banquet speech at my church in 1969. He was very kind and gracious and a dedicated Christian. Rest in Blessed Peace, Mr. Mike and forever - War Eagle!!
Barbara Baldavin is just watched the episode of Star Trek with her in it a couple days ago.
RIP to all.
Joe Flaherty was hilarious! He always made me laugh.
RIP to all.🙏

R. I. P. To all 🙏🕊️🪽
Thank You for sharing this... wondering how many people tried to copy Lou s voice in Enemy Mine.
Wow i didn't know Lou gossett passed..he was a great actor..i loved Diggs town..good movie that's just one of his great movies..RIP Lou 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
An outstanding movie with James Woods. Well said sir
Rest In Peace Louis Gossett Jr. He brought his A game to every role he played, I’ll always remember a Rockford Files he guest starred in with the late Isaac Hayes called Just Another Polish Wedding. I recommend the episode to anyone who just enjoys well made TV.
Hattie mcdaniel was the first African American to win a best supporting academy award.
I wondered how they made this mistake.
Louis Gossett Jr was the first Black MALE to win the Oscar for best supporting actor. I'm sure you all know what she meant
Mr Gossett🥺
Barbara Rush, one of the most beautiful actresses. Watched her in Strangers When We Meet on YT recently. Such a good actress in a great role.
