Comments on: Legendary Actor Paul Newman Dies At 83

Academy Award-Winner Starred In "Hud," "Cool Hand Luke," "Butch Cassidy" And Other Classics

Obit stories often lead one to ponder mortality. Not here. Paul Newman was loved and cherished, and I feel a sense of loss for mankind. I hope others with similar stature take up similar interests for the good of all.

:(

A good man, who made a difference.

Who could ask for more than to be such a positive influence on so many?

He was a TRUE star in the real sense of the word. He epitomized all that was great in the profession unlike many examples today. He was a gentleman, poised and never abused his position as a star (unlike many actors/actresses today who mettle in politics or religion out of their perverse sense of self-importance). He never touted his own horn about his many charitable works. His marriage is a testament to the values so admirable in any couple let alone a pair with a Hollywood background. RIP Mr. Newman.

In memory to Paul Newman,but not in sadness,in celebration of the long and extraordinary life he had.

He was a great actor and a enjoyable to see over the years as he aged. His long term Marriage was a beacon to all those Hollywood brats out there who''s self interest and self indulgence brings the industry down. His Charitable interest are an inspiration and I also like Newmans Own and gladly purchase the products when possiable.

His films were fun to watch and a Joy as I grew older so did he.

may he rest in peace and May his Family find comfort in the great Life he lead

His family owned sporting-goods store stayed in business until the Nineties, I think. A very classy outfit. So was he.

My favorite Newman film? "The Long Hot Summer"...

[edward1975-2009]

He was an actor from a time when talent was the benchmark, and he excelled. RIP and be proud of all you accomplished on and off the screen.

It''s hard to find another man with the drive, energy and experiences that this one had. What a life and he not only enjoyed it to the fullest, he helped many others along the way. If only we all could aspire to live like him. Another true human legend gone and so few others left.

[roachcrusher]

What an actor. What a man. What a human being. He was a living inspiration.

He was in one of my all time favorite movies "Hud." That also was one of his many great roles.

He picked out a small niche in society and did his best to improve our lives. That''s all one can do.

It is a dark day for all of us.........RIP Mr Newman....my heart goes out to his lovely wife, children, grandkids, and friends.

[cdfoxtrot3]

What a great person. I hope he did not suffer. He''s a great loss to this world.

[shanev137]

Sad day in America.

[ubrew12]

Its been an honor to have viewed his performances. I always buy ''Newmans Own''. Nothing like giving your profits to charity.

[occams_taser]

May he rest in peace. He was a good man.

[antepamfe200]

I am so sorry to hear of his passing. They don''t make them like him anymore. May he be with Jesus now and may God give his family and friends and his fans peace at this time that only God can give. Thank You.

I never met Paul Newman, but somehow he''s someone you think you''ve come to know---even though you don''t!

What I like most about him is the way he carried himself through life! He was a well-known entertainer, yet he always tried to give back to the community and the country he lived in!

And though he worked in a community where often times personal relationships are transient, he remained in love with and married to his beloved wife Joanne Woodward!

I never got the chance to meet him in this life, I hope to in the next. He''s one man who WILL be missed by family, friends, and strangers alike!

My condolences to his wife and family, but be not too sad, you''ll all meet again one day and have a joyous reunion! May God bless!

I am sad to see Paul go but he leaves a footprint that will never be filled. While I loved his movies I was most impressed by his social conscience and the fact that he held the same liberal views that I hold. I feel like I have lost a valueable ally and I will never forget him. Rest in peace, Paul. You did good while you were here.
