[wraithfodder]

Alas, news today is that Don S. Davis, General Hammon of Stargate SG-1, passed away yesterday of a massive heart attack :(

.  

The following message was provided by Don's representative and his wife, Ruby Fleming-Davis:

Dear Fans and Friends of Don S. Davis,

So many of you have been touched by not only the work and art of Don S. Davis, but by the man himself, who always took the time to be with you at the appearances he loved, that it is with a tremendous sense of loss I must share with you that Don passed away from a massive heart attack on Sunday morning, June 29th.

On behalf of his family and wife, Ruby, we thank you for your prayers and condolences. A family memorial where Don's ashes will be scattered in the ocean will take place in a few weeks, and should you wish to, please make a donation to the American Heart Association in Don's memory.

So very sad. He was wonderful to watch on screen. I first saw him as Mr. Scully on the x-files, and even in smaller roles he filled the screen with his persona.

He will be missed.

That is also my first viewing of him and I loved him in X-Files. It was actually RTD and DSD that got my attention when they were first promoting Stargate SG-1 way back. My thought was MacGyver and Mr. Scully this is going to be interesting.

I will miss him he was great as an artist and an actor.
