RIP Peter Falk by kandyman

Peter Falk, the American actor most famous for his role as TV's scruffy detective, Columbo, has died at the age of 83.

The actor died peacefully at home in Beverly Hills on Thursday night, his family said in a statement.

He had been suffering from dementia for a number of years.

Peter Falk won four Emmys for his cigar-chomping role as the deceptively bumbling Columbo, and was nominated for Oscars in 1960 and 1961.

I remember him playing Columbo when I were younger. I liked watching his shows. A truly memorable character.

RIP.

It is indeed a sad condition, Dodos Dad has this quite bad now and she gets very upset as he has no idea who she is even after telling him many times.
