He just took his last step through the Stargate. So long, General.

An interesting character actor. Some of us *cough* *wheeze* older types will remember his similar role as General Briggs in Twin Peaks.

I prefer to think he Ascended, personally.

I've missed him ever since he stopped on SG1 - oh well.
Free at last.

Don't wait

I finally got a way to contact Don several months ago and didn't follow through. I thought and now know that he and I were neighbors when we were kids in Larchmont, NY. His brother, John and I were friends and his mother, Christine and my mother, Miriam [Mimi- Faulkner] were friends. I'm really sorry that I didn't try harder to get in touch and am also devastated that he died. His role in Stargate SG 1 was great and I have missed him in that.
