Well put M! Your succinct post was precisely my initial reaction too. I was literally at a loss. It was definitely like a piece of my childhood and youth had been taken away for a moment. There are so many personal memories of simply enjoying a quiet moment between myself and Roger Ebert as I watched his show. I treasure those times. All the best.

He will be missed. Ebert is, in my opinion, the finest film critic of all time.

He was, and I’d say, given the reaction across the globe, one people felt a definite connection toward. Thanks, ckckred.
