Actor Ossie Davis Found Dead in Hotel
it's a sad day guys just read this info over at excite news :
NEW YORK (AP) - Ossie Davis, the imposing, unshakable actor who championed racial justice on stage, on screen and in real life, often in tandem with his wife, Ruby Dee, has died. He was 87. Davis was found dead Friday in his hotel room in Miami Beach, Fla., according to officials there. He was making a film called "Retirement," said Arminda Thomas, who works in his office in suburban New Rochelle and confirmed the death. Miami Beach police spokesman Bobby Hernandez said Davis' grandson called shortly before 7 a.m. when Davis would not open the door to his room at the Shore Club Hotel. Davis was found dead and there does not appear to be any foul play, Hernandez said. R.i.p ossie

can't someone figure out a way for the great actors to suck the life out of those shitty actors that we don't need like Freddie Prinze Jr.?

Are you sure that he's passed on, as it says nowhere on the internet that this great actor even died.

This really shocks me. I always thought he looked great for his age.
