The iconic and lengthy career of Ernest Borgnine was and will always be the stuff of Hollywood dreams. The man never stopped and managed to create one of the more impressive resumes out there. So it’s no surprise that when his death was announced on Sunday afternoon, that fans and friends alike came out in droves to commemorate the actor. Below are some of the highlights from those that paid tribute to this longstanding icon of stage and screens (big and small alike)! He worked in Hollywood for sixty years and always wanted to work more. They don’t make ’em like they used to, you guys.
Rest in Peace… Ernest Borgnine! You were both gracious and full of grace.
