Yes, he was quite charming! Wasn't he? I even liked him in The Poseidan Adventure, because his character seemed so protective and sweet to Nanie. His performance seemed very sincere.

I found him to be quite charming.

Red Buttons was a wonderful all-round actor meaning no matter whether it was drama or comedy or anything in between he nailed it. I think my favorite role of his aside from "ER" was as "Pockets" in "Hatari." When he danced with Brandy I wish they had shown more of his footwork. His expressions during that scene and his intense blue eyes were incredible. In "Sayonara" he was also incredible. I am thankful he shared his wonderful talent with the world. I know I saw him in other shows but these are the three that come to mind.

I saw his last appearance on ER, and didn't know he passed away until the end of 2006 - my boyfriend's mom told me, and I was really surprised. I didn't know he was sick like his character "Ruby" was. The fact that Ruby had closure with Dr. Carter, who wronged him ten years earlier about his wife, was a nice ending. I felt good knowing that Dr. Carter and Ruby made peace with each other.
God bless.

Since you were thoughtful enough to acknowledge these threads, I'd like to add my two cents. I have always had a fond regard for your father as an actor, but didn't realize why until this week. After re-reading of his passing this year, I decided to look into his career, and found "The Double Life of Henry Phyfe". I was 8 years old when that was on, but there's no doubt in my mind that was the source of my love for your father. Funny, isn't it? Be proud. He was a warm, comic actor - one of my favorite combinations

I'm sorry i didn't know he just passed away. I was overseas and i had no television or radio for a month.
Rest in peace

I haven't written anything on this thread but your very welcome on behalf of everybody. I just watched Sayonara for the second time yesterday and i think it's great.
Give him my regards anyway,
Anna-Maria
