I always knew him best as the voice of Senor Senior Sr, one of Kim Possible's most brilliant bad guys. R.I.P., Triple S. At least you were able to live a long and full life.

"You task me, Freakazoid..." (as Armondo Guitierrez)

On his blog, Mark Evanier says Ricardo was one of the classiest guys around.

There goes a chance for a live-action Freakazoid! movie (not that there ever was one in planning).

I knew him as the kids grandfather from Spy Kids 2 and 3-D.

Here's hoping that this is what's going to be said on Ricardo's Tombstone:
" To the last, I grappled with thee! From Hell's heart, I stabbed at thee! For hate's sake, I spat my last breath at thee! "

So sad. He did live a good long and productive life though. I too probably know him best as the grandfather from the Spy Kids franchise, although I remember when first seeing Spy Kids knowing I had seen him before in something. Good actor. He'll be sorely missed.

Good Bye to the man behind the numerous roles such as Mr. Rourke, Khan Noonian Singh, Armondo Guitierrez and the other roles of his that made us all laugh and cry.

I remember his car commercials from the 80's. He had such a memorable voice!

I also liked him in the "Wrath of Khan" movie.

Yes that is a great loss. Such a fine looking man too.

Also sorry to have lost the grat Patrick Mcgoohan in the last few days, star of classic TV shows The Prisoner and Dangerman, and many films including Scanners and Braveheart.
