Willie Wonka has handed out his last Gob Stopper  :'( He has been in a lot of good movies.  I always liked him.

That's a shame. RIP Gene.  I will have a "Said - a - give" tonight in your honor.     :ACRY:

RIP Willy Wonka.

When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

 I can remember watching Willy Wonka at the Valley Drive In Theatre in Kent as a kid, Dads 66 Chevelle SS with the speaker hanging on the window.

 Sad to hear this!
