Do you remember Mr. Holder from [i]Live and Let Die[i] or the Seven Up commercials from the 1970s? I wish I could have met him. RIP.

Ah, the voice of the uncola nut. Remember it well!

RIP, Sir. You brought smiles to my face.

I thought of him last night when I drank a cup of 7-UP.

Wow--I had thought of him a few months ago & googled his name--I was amazed at his accomplishments. What a talented man! RIP.

I wondered what happened to him. He was such a commanding presence and had such a powerful voice. Sad to read that we have lost this great man.

I remember him also as Punjab in the 1982 "Annie" movie.
