That really sucks. He was so good. The character he did in the Dirty Dozen is legend. Kellie's Heros is one of the greatest. Always with the negative waves Moriarity.

Donald Sutherland - what a loss to the film industry - and his grateful audience of course.
He didn't always get the lead role, but he added a lot to each film he was in. A very memorable actor.
My two favorites, that come to mind at least, were "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" (1978 version) and "Outbreak" (1995 version with Dustin Hoffman")

(FYI if you've never seen Outbreak, I think it one of the most interesting virus movies ever, however critics favor Contagion - that I haven't seen)

Most of you have probably never heard of him - he was a local Texas boy, but an interesting character
Kinky Friedman - age 79
American musician, writer, and politician
Toured with Bob Dylan in 1975–1976
A lot of his music and comments were deemed "politically incorrect". He was always in the news for something around here.
