RIP Peter Mayhew

Postby packerbacker180 » Thu May 02, 2019 6:24 pm

Peter Mayhew, everyone's favorite Wookie, passed away at the age of 74.

Was looking for a good image to post, and came across this gif, and admittedly, it made me very teary eyed.

Completely unexpected. RIP, Mr. Mayhew.

I met him a few years back, truly the most humble and sweet man I have ever met. He will be missed dearly...

I met him once in 1999 in an sci-fi expo and he was charming, delightful, and wants to entertain you. I just find him exactly like you Webs.

Very Likeable and enjoys the presence of fans.

Doctor Fate and Fate of the World ... are the same person ... the reason for two accounts is to add more photographs to this forum.

I was so sad to hear of his passing....as crucial as he was to the SW Universe, I feel he was largely (no pun intended) overlooked; such a kind man
I am one of the 63%....
