RIP he was the best perry white in my opinion and should have been in Returns. He's up there watching Chris Reeve stumble around as Clark.

 

[CSMacLaren]

He made an awesome Perry White. R.I.P.

He will always be just "Jackie" from Our Gang to me.

 

[Wes R]

I hope the Oscars don't forget him like they seem to like to do with folks when it's memorial time.

"Why, I was a reporter when most of my friends were copy boys.
That's what I'm trying to say to you, son, get Lois to introduce you to Superman.
Find out where he got that blue suit. Did he have it made? Is it silk? Is it plastic?"

So Long Jackie - You were a GREAT Rascal (I think he was the last one). And a fantastic Perry White.

 

[Wes R]

I just realized that with him gone heaven's got one heck of a Superman cast between the Reeve movie members, the serials, the Reeves show.

Great TV director as well.

RIP.

 

[Treadwell]

He really was one of best, perhaps THE best performer in the Gang.
RIP

Same here!

Another class act gone!

He will always be just "Jackie" from Our Gang to me.

He had a long life and a great career.
I watched him in Our Gang shorts, tv series and movie. Plis, as micdavis pointed out he was a director of some good shows. Definately a better career than the rest of the gang.
Early on he worked with some greats, later he was one the greats that the new actors got to work with.
He left behind a lot of great work.
