"Another Goodbye"
3 Comments - Show Original Blog

Heard about his death this morn. on the news. Sad to know another gentleman and good actor has "gone"; 60 year marriage with his wife! Loved "Fury",and "Mission Impossible", also his out-of-character "bad guy" in "Stalag 17" and wittingly smart "Airplane" :o)

Tom - Actually Peter (Aurness) Graves was full brother to James (Aurness) Arness...Peter the younger brother; both born to Ruth and Rolf Aurness.

Oh yes Randall, My sister and I are sitting here. We remember. He was a very handsome gentleman, and good actor back in the day.

Thank you for being informative.

WHO PLAYED THE ROLE OF 'THE THING' IN THE ORIGINAL SCI-FI FLICK!
