    Angel was a great character and Margolin played it beautifully.

    I think he played the radio operator talking to the artillery commander in Kelly’s Hero’s. Then giving the handset to Big Joe at your he beginning of the movie.

    In addition to all the roles noted here, Margolin was also a great songwriter / musician who was the partner of Jerry Riopelle of the band of the same name which was a regional favorite in Phoenix and Los Angeles.

    You hate him, but he makes the show better.
He would make me so mad.......always out for a score but I’d get equally mad at Rockford for letting him take advantage of him so much.....I’d wanna spit!

    Wonder when he got his 2 shots and if any boosters?
That info could be important to people waiting for the shoes to drop.
 
To: WeaslesRippedMyFlesh
    He had the role of Angel perfect. Sleezy, yet lovable. LOL
Great character actor. May he RIP.
 
To: WeaslesRippedMyFlesh
    When I saw his face on Google, I heard his voice in my head. Distinctive. R.I.P.
