RIP George Gaynes

Movie fans know him as the chief on Police Academy movies while tv fans known him as Henry Warnimont on both Punky Brewsters; sitcom & cartoon, both on NBC. He was 98.

Dangit 2016... Why you gotta be so rough man! At least he lived to be 98...but still. I loved him in Punky Brewster!

You know, I'd completely forgotten he was in Punky Brewster (yes, it did show in the UK). 98 is a great age though... and he was perfect as Captain Lassard

I did like those Police Academy flicks, also liked his appearances in Mission Impossible, Columbo, and Cheers, glad he got to have 98 good years, enjoy heaven George Gaynes
