Sean Connery as James Bond

Had dinner with him two years ago in the Bahamas.

Witty, smart, never PC.

The best Bond by far and a brilliant all around actor.

More boldface names took to social media to share their respect for an actor for the ages.

I have sweet memories of watching Dad watch his movie idol.

So Sean Connery’s passing also feels like I’m losing Dad again.

A legend on screen, and off.

I met him once and he was gracious and beautiful.

A true icon and immense Scottish man.

Rest In Peace."
