He was a terrific actor. He lived a nice long life. Rest In Peace, Ernest Borgnine.

He was one of the best. He was in so many great movies and McHale's Navy was a classic. All the great ones are leaving us.

Whatta character - but a nice one. Glad he found the right fit with his last wife. Showed a lot of class too; never bad-mouthed Ethel Merman though she read him to filth. He had a nice work ethic as well - still plugging well into his 90s. Just an all around good natured guy who'll be missed. Rest in peace Ernest.
