Thank you posting that video. I hadn't seen it before and there is nothing I could add to the eloquent words of Wendell Pierce. Rest In Peace Mr. Williams. I will never forget your talents and humility. There will never be another character like Omar.

Something about once someone passes away and you see these clips of them and suddenly their vulnerability seems so clear and obvious. RIP to this physical being may his soul live on.

That right there is what you call a living eulogy. What an amazing tribute that I am so glad he got to hear in life rather than all the praise he is receiving upon his tragic passing.

Perhaps the only actor of recent times where I'd watch something just cos he was in it, without even reading a summary.

What I love is that he basically gave this beautiful tribute to his face, in that moment, instead of waiting until he was gone. Tell your people they're amazing every chance you get, don't wait until they're gone

Met @WendellPierce at my friend's B&B in NOLA. After chatting a bit, my young teenaged son walked in. I said, "Come meet Mr. Pierce". He held out his hand to my son & said, "Hey, my man, I'm Wendell, glad to meet you." \nHis easy friendliness made quite an impression on us both.

Kudos to you for being proud of your cousin. @WendellPierce is a class act and actor who has my utmost respect. I am sorry for his and our collective loss of Michael K. Williams. Their performances together in The Wire are the best in television.

Listening to Wendell Pierce describe Michael K Williams talent just brought me to tears. I barely knew Michael more than a what up and a pound yet we all felt like we knew him in NYC. He was everywhere and he was himself. No airs just being him. NYC lost The Peoples Champ.
