Adios, Mr. Roarke! Ricardo Montalban RIP

At almost ANY point in my childhood through young adulthood, I could turn on the TV and find Ricardo Montalban's face staring back at me. He was ever-present. But, his most surprising role to me was Vittorio Vidal in Sweet Charity. I never, ever thought of him as a love interest.

The dulcet tones extolling the virtues of "Rich Corinthian Leather"

Since Georgiana passed away last year this is not too much of a surprise, a 63 year marriage, wow! From all I've read and other movie people have mentioned who knew him, a class act and true gentlemen's gentleman.
