Re: JAMES GARNER - STAR OF MAVERICK AND THE ROCKFORD FILES - DIES
CNN) -- James Garner, the understated, wisecracking everyman actor who enjoyed multi-generational success on both the small and big screen, has died. He was 86.
Police, who were called to his residence Saturday night in Los Angeles, say he died of natural causes.
Garner starred in hit TV series almost 20 years apart -- "Maverick" in the late 1950s and "The Rockford Files" in the 1970s. He also had a notable film career, starring in such classics as "Sayonara" (1957), "The Great Escape" (1963), "The Americanization of Emily" (1964), "Grand Prix" (1966) and "Victor/Victoria" (1982), as well as the TV movies "My Name Is Bill W." (1989) and "Barbarians at the Gate" (1993). More recent films included "Space Cowboys" (2000) and "The Notebook" (2004).
Sad news, LL, I really liked him as an actor, and he seems to have been a genuinely nice person, too.

Definitely a good guy, he was married to the same lady for 58 years. Not quite as long as James Cagney who stayed married for 64 years. LL
