Location: Campbell River, British Columbia		Red Buttons: "Leslie Nielsen who said, 'Well ... We shot a lot of people together. It's been great. But today I retire, so if I do any shooting now, it'll have to be within the confines of my own home. Hopefully, an intruder and not an in-law, like at my bachelor party.'

HE never played an Ovation."

Very nice and personable guy.
He will be missed.

Location: Winnipeg, Manitoba CANADA		A great Canadian (born February 11, 1926 in Regina, Saskatchewan...) and a very funny guy.
To remain so deadpan and straight faced while doing such OTT comedy showed his true artistry.

He will be sadly missed.

Location: Rego Park, NY,		I saw a brief interview on the news. He was asked what his epitaph should be. He said "Let him RIP" and then he farted.

Location: Arizona		Check out "Forbidden Planet" from 1956--it showed Star Trek how to boldy go where no man had gone before with Leslie in the Capt. Kirk role.
