Ah that sucks to hear. His version of Jim has always been the one that I associated with most.

Oh no. Just saw this. That's sad news... His Jim Gordon was and will always be the best in my book.

Indeed. I'm sure I'm not the only one who after hearing his version, heard his voice whenever I read Jim Gordon's dialogue in the comics...
