Ricardo Montalban Has Died

Ricardo Montalban, who was born in Mexico, died Wednesday morning at his home, a city councilman said. Ricardo was 88 years-old. He was best known for playing the lead role in Fantasy Island, and the Wrath of Khan in a Star Trek movie.

Rest in peace.

Below is a scene from the Wrath of Khan above, and below is part 1 of a tribute to Ricardo who was presented with the Easter Seals Lifetime Achievement Award. Part 2 can be seen here, and part 3 can be seen here. Ricardo was even featured in a video for, if I remember correctly, a video for The Secret that demonstrated the power of the laws of attraction. Ricardo’s magnetic personality caused everyone in a room to gather around him as soon as he walked in, even though they didn’t know who he was. That’s how I remember it.

Ricardo was a living legend.
