He also did over 100 movies, Broadway and other TV shows including Dragnet

I think one of the most remarkable things about him as an actor was that even though
you knew who he was, without major changes, he became the new character in each
role he played.  That of course is the magic of being a first rate actor.

Awww, he and I shared a birthday. Not the year, just the date.

Shame, but 96 is a bloody good run.

His role as Col. Potter on M*A*S*H was definitely his most memorable

One hell of a good innings, especially for an actor.

I wonder if he made a tontine with a really great bottle of wine?

A couple of more things:

You don't get hired that often in a business where everyone
talks to everyone unless you comport yourself as a professional.

The man had 2 marriages, the first ended when she died and he was
with his second wife until his death.  Rare in that business in this day and age.

The people posing here to say they are saddened are from all over the USA,
and from the UK, and from Germany. 

There is a saying in show business that dates from vaudeville.  He was a "class act".

I knew he was getting up there in years, but his passing makes Me sad just the same.

We'll miss you, Harry.
