RIP Vincent Schiavelli

One of the most quintessential character actors, (I think), ever, Vincent Schiavelli has died.

Some Bio Facts about him include: speaking fluent Sicilian, authoring three cookbooks, and his grandfather, whom he grew up with, was a cook for an Italian baron before moving to the United States.

I guess if I were an actor, having a large name-recognition factor would be great...something that probably every actor wants.

But there is also the other side, that being, having incredible face recognition with "Who's that guy, he's in everything," reaction that I think would be the pinnacle of acting success.

Mr. Schiavelli reached and surpassed that pinnacle benchmark.

Rest In Peace Mr. Schiavelli.
