I had to google his name, but once I saw his picture I knew who he was.
The guy has been in a lot of great classic films too.

If Mays doesn't count, then we are due for one more soon. | I'd say Mays counts.
Should Carradine really be on the list, IIRC he died on June 3rd, all the others died within a few days of each other. There's close to a 3 week gap from Carradine to the next death which was Ed's on June 23rd, then after Ed's the rest all happened within 7 days. I've always understood the death comes in 3s thing to mean they all happen within a weeks time of each other.
