The original Aunt Beru has passed away from a lengthy illness, she was 78. Another passing of an original Star Wars character. Goes to show that we're all slowly getting older. :(

Just curious what other original Trilogy actors have died. I can think of Cushing, Guiness, and Jack Purvis and now Fraser, does anyone know of anybody else who has passed away?

Who was Jack Pruvis? Was he the "original" Jabba in ANH?

Jack Purvis was the head jawa and an Ewok, I forget which one. If I'm not mistaken, he may have been an Ughnaught too.

I know certain members of the Red group from ANH aren't with us anymore either.

The guy who originally played Jabba, Declan Mulholland is also dead.

Purvis played several parts in the movies. I know he played the chief Jawa and a droid. He played an Uganaut in TESB and Ewok cheif in ROTJ. He played in many movies, particularly Monty Python allumn Terry Gilliam's Films including Time Bandits, The adventures of Maunchausen(sp)and Brazil.
