Got to serve him dinner one night while I lived in Big Bend, Texas. He was in town filming. Was a very friendly and personable guy. I was 20 at the time and a generous tipper to boot. Something about him just exuded charisma both on and off screen.

Oh my gosh, what a wonderful actor he was. My idea of a "real" man, the total package; masculine, sexy, smart, funny, sweet.

My Mama and I used to watch it every day. I went home for lunch from work to watch it with her and we also watched Barnaby Jones. I have a hard time watching them now since she passed away.

I also grew up watching the TV shows he was in, but probably my favorite role of his was King Marchand in Victor/Victoria opposite the great Julie Andrews. Delightfully funny movie!

Guillermo, The Rockford Files theme song was by Mike Post. He wrote and recorded many other TV show songs, including the theme for Hill Street Blues.
