The actor who played Dumbledore in the later films has passed after a bout with pneumoia.

May he, Robbie Coltrane, Richard Harris, and Alan Rickman share a round of butterbeers in a pleasant "whatever comes next".
Happiness: money matters, but less than we think and not in the way that we think. Family is important and so are friends, while envy is toxic -- and so is excessive thinking. Beaches are optional. Trust is not. Neither is gratitude. - The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner as summarized by Lily Fairbairn. And a bit of the Hobbit reading thrown in never hurts. - NottaSackville

I first remember him in "The Singing Detective" - he was brilliant.
Apparently he also had a good sense of humor.

I'd highly recommend this film for any Gambon fans who haven't yet seen it. Incredible.
RIP sir. You were great at what you did.

Rest in Peace...
I know we all have this chapter in our own stories; but it's still so sad...

of roles he leaves behind. I was reading his obituary in the Guardian this morning, and realised I'd been aware of barely a tenth of what he'd done.
May he rest in peace.
