    I didn’t realize he was that old. In my mind, he was one of those figures that was stuck in time, perpetually middle-aged.

    It’s sad that he’s gone, but he’s lucky to have lived such a long life.

      Doesn’t feel like it but everyone gets older all the time. I’m always worried about a headline like this for Morgan Freeman. I was blown away finding out Donald Sutherland was born in 1935 when he passed earlier this year.
