I wasn't a huge Sopranos star or familiar with his work, but I knew his name and his face. When I saw this, it totally caught me by surprise. He truly died before his time.

Yeah I saw an article about it---died of 51, that's still's to young to...

He was a very talented man, and it's a shame I won't get to watch more films with him in a leading role.

Can't say I was a fan of his, but the few movies I've seen him in, he played his characters brilliantly.

It's a shame there won't be any more to feature his professional touch.

He died way too soon

RIP

[censored] [censored], just heard this morning. I loved The Sopranos and loved his Tony Soprano character. Rest in peace man, rest in peace. 51.

There's only one thing I can say to this: "Oh!"

Thats not really something to joke about..
