My father passed away very peacefully last night at the fantastic age of 86 years old, she said.

He kept moving, working, and making us happy until the very end.

We loved him so very much!

We will miss him forever.

Ive been in a lot of shows, I will say that.

If an offer comes in, Ill always say, It sounds great, just send me a script.

Its really difficult for an actor to turn something down.

Willard added that he felt acting in G- or PG-related films takes much more talent than raunchier projects.
