Kenny Baker Will Not Be Down For Breakfast

Played R2-D2 in Star Wars. If you saw a three-legged R2-D2, Kenny was inside. A two-legged R2-D2 was a robot. Dead of natural causes at 81.

I'm glad at least he reached a goodly age. So he was... 71? 72? When he did his last Star Wars move as an actor (I think he was just a consultant on the new series). That's dedication.

He also played the Ewok who stole a speeder bike, Paploo. And he was in Willow and Labyrinth, which latter I love, but I have no idea who he played in those.
