I grew up with "Fantasy Island" (which I rarely watched) and seeing him in movies.
But it wasn't until he did the voice of the talking cow that Peter and Brian rescued from the "McBurgertown" slaughterhouse in an episode of "Family Guy" that I realized just how really cool he was.
I let out an audible groan when I saw on the front page of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that he died.
I'm going to have to listen to "Jamaica" tonight.
