If ever a person could make you believe a garbage can had a fully-developed personality, Kenny Baker made this so. R2-D2 is one of the most famous characters of all time and I truly believe this wouldn't be the case without him.

Rest in Peace, Kenny and thanks for the wonderful memories.

R.I.P. You gave so much to a lot of Star Wars fans enough to the point where every kid had a R2-D2 figure on their shelves.

yeah this news really sucks.

He was R2 - saved more lives in the saga than he gets credit for.

Will be missed.

One by one, we're losing the real-life people behind the heroes of our youth and it sucks.

R.I.P. to you, sir.
