I was offline for just over a week and nobody on NSG posted a thread about the passing of this legend?

In a world (http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Movies/09/02/obit.lafontaine/index.html)...

NPR said it best -- nobody did it better, and for 30-some years.

I think I speak for all of us when I say that I loved Don Lafontaine's voice on trailers. He WAS the trailers, in so many ways...and now he is gone. :(

I hope he recorded a trailer/voiceover for his own funeral.

Wow. I even looked before I posted. It must have slipped into the "past-two-days" limbo. Apologies.
