Yes!  Great write-up.

Enjoyed so many of his performances, but I think Fish was my favorite. Loved the "Barney Miller" ensemble. RIP.

Good night , Tessio. You were always smarter than Clemenza...

I saw him in an NYC restaurant at least 25 years ago and even then I thought "geez, is he still alive?"

"Tell Mike it was only business. I always liked him."

Apparently his last words were: "Can you get me off the hook, for old times sake?"

just read the news, we're sad in this house. A long life, well lived, that much pleasure to many. 

I got a girl in the castle and one in the pagoda...

He was an original!  RIP.

About 5 or 6 years ago, we thought we saw him at Toast in Montclair. The face fit, the age fit, but he looked smaller .. mind you he was sitting down. Wow !  I just found this picture, so now I know it was him ...
