RIP, what a career, the Man from U. N. C. L. E was huge. I read in a BBC article that MGM said he got more fan mail than Elvis. He also became a self-taught expert in forensics to play his NCIS role and became so good the producers considered hiring him as a consultant.

RIP. He was one of my favorite characters on NCIS and he'll be missed.

I read a quote from his son about how his wife was sad they didn't get to grow old together, and what kind of spirit and relationship they had, that she didn't view him as old at 90. 🥺

Ducky was such a good character.

I read that too and I think it might be the most romantic thing I've ever heard. They were together 58 years and it still wasn't enough.

I will never forget you, Ducky <3
