Pulitzer Prize winning playwright and Academy Award nominee Sam Shepherd passed away from complications associated with ALS. He was 73.

I'll remember him as Chuck Yeager from The Right Stuff, emerging from the shimmering desert after his test jet aircraft crashed.

ALS is a horrible disease. RIP

Aww...that sucks! RIP

Well dang. I loved him in everything I saw him in. Didn't even know he had ALS. RIP

Had no idea he was even sick.  One of my favorites.  RIP
