For those of you, like myself, that grew up watching Stargate SG-1, the news of Don S. Davis (Gen. Hammond) passing away will be as hard on you as it is for me.

Even though I didn't think it was possible, after reading his obituary at Gateworld.net, I have a new found respect for the man who portrayed Gen. Hammond on Stargate SG-1.

Even through bad health, he still gave a lot to, not only, SG-1, but also to the sci-fi community as well. Through his art and gracious spirit I'm sure he touched just as many people off camera as he did on camera.

He we definitely be missed.
