#4 Please get your PSA check staring with a baseline in your early 40's. No one need die from Prostate cancer.

RIP Mr Orbach.

#5 Dang. I always liked 'Lenny'; he seemed to be the most real cop on a cop show out there (way better than NYPD Blue, IMHO). Given that L&O would not let him develop the character except for a little here, a little there, Orbach was able to fill in all the blanks and show us what a cop could look like.

RIP, Jerry, and thanks for the acting.

#6 About 8 years ago, my son - then about 10 - had a bit part in a L&O episode. His character was promised a "junior deputy" certificate by "Lenny" - and darned if Orbach didn't have one made up for him! Found out later that a good friend of ours had, many years earlier, toured with him with a Broadway play (the Fantastics?) when she was just starting out. Never heard a bad word about him. RIP

#7 W! Lennieeeee!

He must have gone downhill really fast, since he was set to star in a new Lawn Order spinoff.

In the immortal words of Slim Pickens: "I am depressed."
