As a COP most of my life I enjoyed the role that Leslie played in police squad and the the Naked Gun.
The humor was a great distraction from the real world that "COP's" live in. As I write this I am watching Naked Gun.
End of watch for Lt. Drebin. Thank you Mr. Nielson (yes it is 10 yrs later, but better late than never)

Leslie Nielson certainly made a very successful transition from dramatic to comedic actor. His roles in Naked Gun and Airplane could leave you crying with laughter. Laughter is good medicine for whatever ails you and its good to still have his movies availabe to make us laugh and put aside our troubles. May the God of all comfort give comfort to the surviving members of the family.

A fine actor and a wonderful comedic talent. I was absolutely enthralled with Forbidden Planet as a youngster. As an adult I laughed like crazy at your comedies beginning with Airport. You may no longer be with us but your spirit and talent live on in the entertainment you have left us!

The world has lost a comedian that was able to make people laugh and smile without belittling others. True talent and character. His impact will be long lasting and his memory will always bring a smile.

My mother, Jennie Brown, went to school with Leslie Nielsen in Thorhild Alberta. She recently passed away - also at 84 years of age. She was shaken when Leslie passed; she had shared with us fond memories of Leslie and his family.

Sometimes meeting celebrities can be a letdown, as they often don't measure up to our image of them. Not Mr. Nielsen. I met him when he was shooting some public service spots for the Phoenix Fire Department. He had a great sense of humor, was a very nice, genuine, and humble man. He seemed like a person who really enjoyed life and appreciated all his celebrity had given him. I was saddened to hear of his passing and consider myself lucky to have met him. My sincere condolences to his family and loved ones.

I liked his science fiction film, "Forbidden Planet" released sometime between 1957 & ''60. Super cool film. It proved you could make a very entertaining & interesting film without all the profanity being used today. Fan, Gary Jones

May your family find peace and love with his passing. His memory will live on in television land. My husband had done some remodel work on his home in Scottsdale, Arizona,Mr. Nielsen was a very kind person, he had made all the workers stop and take a break while he served Tea & Biscotti to the workers. Not only was he larger than life in his movies, He was a real person and very kind to those he met. My prayers are with the family and close friends. I have so many favorite lines from Airplane, he will never be forgotten.
