Mr Gazzaras tv show “Run for your life” effected me at a young age. I took from it “make the most of life and live it to the fullest. Thank you Mr Gazzara, I thought of you often though out my life.
loved the professor and road house, played great bad guys… will be missed
So sad,a long time fan from u.k.
Mr. Gazzara was great actor both in movies and on televsion. I especially remember his performances on television. I was quite impressed with his television work. He was able to portray a variety of characters and make them quite believeable! He shall be sorely missed in the entertainment field. I agree with one previous statement that he was never really recognized for the superb work he did. My deepest sympathy to his family. He is no longer, “running for his life!”
So sorry to hear of his passing. He was a great actor and will be missed. God bless all of you, and know he is with the Lord.
Sorry to hear of his passing. Thank you Ben for for the entertaining moments I loved your work.
Thanks for the memories Ben: thanks for the memories: Rest with the angels.
The Gazzara family: During this most difficult journey May your friends bring you comfort: May our prayers bring you peace. May God’s light show you the way.

Ben ,RIP . Even in West Africa you had lot of fan.
Great actor… RIP.
Sorry for your loss. The loss of a dear loved one can cause great emotional pain. The bible at John 5:28,29 promises that their is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. It is my hope and prayer that these verses give you something positive to think about the rest of the day.
What a talent the world has lost. Condolences to the family.
Always new the film would be good when you were in it. You will be remembered. Thanks for the entertainment. Del. ENGLAND
