Definitely my favorite book scene. I wish his family and friends to know how much he touched people with his comedic talent.
Don't squat with your spurs on.

I have fond memories of watching him work his magic on Barney Miller, and then on Firefly....This was a shock when I saw it on Facebook.
Rest in Peace Mr. Glass, a finer gentleman we will not meet.

A sad day indeed!

I'll not use my typical signature this time, which is Mandarin for "We're still flying." I think Serenity will be grounded for a while as we process our grief.

It's good to see people here who haven't posted in ages. Keep in touch.
RIP, Ron. I'll see you in the black, not the special Hell.

RIP Ron. You'll be missed.
Ron and Nathan were at the prescreening of Serenity I got to see. Nathan stole the show, but Ron got in a few good lines. Ron also guest starred at a CSTS screening I went to and he was amazing. I didn't expect much from him, but he told a lot of funny stories and had the audience wrapped around his finger. He seemed very genuine as well. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.

We met a couple of times. Not only a great talent, but a true gentleman with a great sense of humor. Rest in peace Shepherd. Rest in peace Ron. You'll be missed........and thank you.

One of the BDHs has left us...
Well, I guess it had to happen some time. This year. 2016, we need words.
The man who played the Shepherd is being welcomed in to the eternal home by the great Shepherd.
I met Ron Glass several times. His greeting was always warm and heartfelt.
At a convention in the UK, he sat beside me during the meet-and-greet. He was wearing a Lakers hat. I asked, 'Are you a fan?'. He replied that indeed he was and the Lakers were playing back home so he'd miss the game. Knowing the resourcefulness of the tech crew, I suggested he asked the tech desk and they would almost certainly have ways of accessing the game and keep him up to speed on the ball play and indeed the score.
The look on his face is something I don't think I will ever forget....
