Famous for his role as Mr. Roarke on the original Fantasy Island as well as Khan in "Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan," Ricardo Montalbán has died.
Twenty years after the original Fantasy Island there was a remake.
Previously, Hervé Villechaize (Tattoo) committed suicide in 1993.

Will his coffin be lined with rich, Corinithian leather?

Wow, I loved Ricardo Montalban as an actor. He was such a delightful ham. The Wrath of Kahn was only great because he and William Shatner were always out-doing each other ("I will avenge you!" "I'm laughing at the superior intellect...").

Damn. I looked on the front page, wrote my post, and my links were fine. Got beat to the punch.
This post was deleted because Mr. Roarke's dead undead!
Flagged it myself.

I hope he is laid to rest in a casket appointed with fine corinthian leather.
