I met him just two weeks ago, and he was still in great spirits. A sad loss.

R2-D2 has been my favorite Star Wars character since I was kid. I was so saddened to hear this today. :(

I heard about this yesterday during my D&D game. We all had a mo\ent of silence for him. The weird thing is that one of our players was wearing an R2-D2 shirt.
