Paul was a class act.

Too sad- he's one of my favorite actors, and a kind and generous man in real life. He was everything Brad Pitt wishes he could be.

I'm so bummed. Sure he was a great actor but he trancended that with his kindness and his belief that he could (and should) use his celebrity to help others and to aid causes that he believed in.

RIP Paul, you will be missed.

It was one of those things that even as we were discussing it a while back, I couldn't imagine actually happening. What a loss for the world from a man who had given so much kindness to the world.

Thanks for digging the thread up, it's a really nice tribute.

I've been dreading this loss, though I knew it was coming. I'd heard he had pancreatic cancer, which is what took my dad at the age of 82. The parallels (my dad didn't give millions to charity, but he did have sparkling blue eyes and meant the world to me) made this seem personal.

Paul Newman was such a remarkable man, who had a wonderful life worth celebrating. I am happy for him, that he no longer feels pain, but I'm so sad for his family.

A modest Philanthropist, when most seek fanfare. The ton of unhappy cheese says it all. If there is a Heaven, you'll be there Mr Newman.

Another slice for the pile:

Paul says goodbye.

I don't know why so many celebrity deaths lately are hitting me hard, maybe it's an age thing.
