I didn’t think he was that old. Then I remembered how old I am...

LOL...you summed it perfectly. I hit 65 three weeks ago. Simply not possible! I’m still 21.

Ha! Me, too.

Same, exact reaction I had! This one hit me for some reason. Maybe he’s reunited with Gilda now. That was such a loss. RIP, Gene Wilder, you were a comedic genius.

That was my first reaction.

I hear you.

Funny how it creeps up on you like that. I was thinking, "He's 83? No way!" And then it made sense why I hadn't seen Wilder in a film for quite some time.

Same as all of you.

With each passing year, I latch harder and harder onto my lifes motto (I think Gene would agree)

"Growing old is mandatory.
Growing up is optional."

Gene had a perpetual smirk on his face and a twinkle in his eye.

I endeavor to have the same.
