Sorry to hear! Out of body, into the creators hands. Rest well!
RIP Oscar winner Lou Gossett Jr. I always love seeing him turn up in TV shows and movies from the 1970's. He's in an episode of 1960's Sci-Fi TV show "The Invaders", he played Florida's brother in an especially funny episode of "Good Times", he's in a very cool movie drama about reincarnation from 1976 called "J.D's Revenge", The miniseries "Roots" and so-so many more productions. He was a very successful working actor and he will be missed.
