'It pains me to bring you guys this unfortunate news today, and it never gets any easier reporting on someone’s passing. Unfortunately, the legendary character actor Richard Lynch has passed according to a great friend of his, Rob Zombie.
Richard Lynch passed away at the age of 72, and the cause of death hasn’t been confirmed just yet.
Lynch began his career way back in 1972 with the film Scarecrow in which he starred alongside Al Pacino and from here the sky was the limit. His film career blossomed and Lynch soon became a cult favorite.
He was instantly recognizable with his blond hair and strong, gaunt, face and starred in possibly over 100 films. Working with everybody and anybody in Hollywood in a range of films from dramas to b-movies, you name it, Richard Lynch has done it.
As well as feature films, he had a very successful career in TV with shows like Battlestar Galactica, The Phoenix, Airwolf and even the A-Team to name just a small few.'

He was a very underrated actor. I liked his work. RIP
Looks like the guy on the Northwestern from Deadliest Catch. Sig.
Incorrect, once you've left active duty you're a former Marine and the prefix "ex" is appropriate as well for some like Ritter, Dellums, Carville, Garwood, Oswald, Lonetree, Dennehy, Murtha, Glenn, Farrell, McFarlane, Lehrer, Shields, etc.
Well I guess he was #3. He was a great villain.
