Those who never saw the movie that allowed Tom Hanks to give this wonderful actor his start, please rent it one of these days. Michael Clarke Duncan was incredible in it.
Pass peacefully into that next realm, Mr. Duncan. I will remember you, for sure.

and he was just sweet and engaging...RIP

who could have played that role with the grace and humanity that Duncan brought to it.
He was a wonderful actor who always struck me as being a nice guy IRL.
Yeah, I was right. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0003817/bio

is Omarosa Manigault of the apprentice fame. Apparently she is now a reverend. Wow.
RIP Mr. Duncan you were an amazing actor gone too soon.
