Philip Seymour Hoffman

Godspeed Philip, a sadly short and troubled life. A wonderful actor, and wonderful, wonderful film memories. Unforgettable. Thank you Philip, and your issues are no more.

He was a fantastic actor and I'm sure a sweet, lovable man. We just watched Twister again and I was taken back to how young he was. He was brilliant in Capote. He wasn't himself. He WAS Capote. He is missed. My deepest regards to his family who miss him very much, I'm sure.

Hi How are you I am writing a late condolence. I give my condolences to his family. I loved his movies etc. I will miss him. He seemed like a nice guy. Take care bye.

If I had a once of one's talent, I would have been the happiest person on earth. Your talent was AWESOME! IT takes years to find folks with your qualities .....BRILLIANCE AT ITS BEST.....MISSING YOU...MISSING YOU....RIP

Brilliant actor. Never forgotten, Rest in Peace sir.

:(

I haveloved everything you have done, since the first time I saw you. I was shocked and saddened when I finaly saw Mockingjay Part 1 and at the end there was a memorium to you. I rarely watch or read the news because it's too depressing.I missed your passing by a while. I will miss your wonderful face. I thank you for the unforgetable entertainment.

I didn't know Phil except through his phenomenal work. He was and is my favourite actor. I think of him often. His expressive physicality and range as an actor were breathtaking. As we approach the first anniversary of his utterly tragic death, he will never be forgotten. I hope that his children and partner will treasure the happy memories they have of him- he always seemed like a wonderful and caring Dad. Much love and light to you

What a profound effect the passing of Philip Seymour Hoffman has had on so many people whether you knew him or not the effect seems to be the same. A great loss to the Art of Acting and the family and friends he left behind. For someone who tried so hard to keep his family life private, his death caused the world to see the beautiful family suffering the loss of their Dad and Partner.

We have so many memories of our love ones we have loss in death.but there will be a time when we can see them again.God promise us that.so we endure until that time comes.

Man, you were so great. So talented! A genuine soul. You will be missed greatly!

Philip, you will be missed! In my family you will always be fondly remembered as the "suck zone" guy in Twister! Rest now; your struggles are over ... <3

To the Family of Mr. Hoffman.
Very sorry for your loss, it was tragic news.
May the God who supplies comfort,comfort you
all at this difficult.

A light to all

Mimi,

When the news hit of your loss, it broke my heart and brought back memories of my husband that was the exact same story. I was 40 and had. 3 children ages 17,14, and 10. It was devastating buy I can tell you through Faith, our God is an awesome God and will lift you and your children up .. We are a very close and strong family today., we miss him but he lives in my children and now my grandchildren.. Keep all his good memories alive
. May you be lifted up with strength from the Holy Spirit

My wishes go out to any family or friends ...p

May you find the peace that excaped you on this earth. God love you.

MAY GOD COMFORT THE FAMILY.MATT.5:4"HAPPY ARE THOSE WHO MOURN,SINCE THEY WILL BE COMFORTED.".......

truly the most enjoyable interesting personality capturing full attention

I wish I had seen you on stage. I thought I had time. I didn't. I wish you were not in pain. I wish you understood how much you were loved.

I am so saddened to know that such an incredibly generous artist is no longer here to express his art in such beautiful ways. And for his family - partner, children, mother -I have some sense of the tremendous loss that they will bear, in some way, for the rest of their lives. My thoughts are with them as they move forward in their own lives, without that light. What a loss, in so many different ways.

MUCH LOVE

MANY BLESSINGS!
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SOUL

God Bless Your Soul, Phillip. (You bared it in your artistic endeavors. You were one of my favorite actors. I feel blessed to have seen you walking down the street in NYC when I was visiting there. May you rest in peace. I pray your trials are over. My heart goes out to your family. You were one of the greatest actors of all times. Thank You for your gifts and talent.

RIP Phillip.. God bless you and your family and all who loved you...
Addiction is heartbreaking ... You are someone I would love to meet in heaven one day...

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Such a young life loss . My condolences to Mr Hoffman 's family. May the God of all comfort be with you at this time Isaiah 61:1,2

A great actor, person, son and father. Gone too soon! Condolances to his mother, Mimi, his beautiful children and all his family and friends! God's peace and strength to all of you. JPO

Heartfelt condolences to Mimi, Cooper, Tallulah, Willa, and all of Mr. Hoffman's family and close friends. He will be missed and was such a gift to the world during his short time here.

I am deeply saddened that we have lost such a gifted and beautiful man.I hope you rest in peace now PSH.

I hope time heals for his wife, children, mother and the rest of his siblings.
If everyone here keeps remembering them with a prayer that will help them tremendously. Let's do this out of respect for Philip Seymour Hoffman. If we feel helpless and sad, this will help us too.
I look over all this outpouring of LOVE for Philip Seymour Hoffman and the memories and now legacy he leaves behind.
He is/and forever more the "PEOPLE'S ACTOR", proof of all these caring messages.
He wasn't a man to showcase designer label wardrobes, hot tabloids of extravagant vacations, wisecrack remarks to put others down or any other actions to be in the tabloids.
He was the "REAL DEAL". The element of a "TRUE GENTLEMAN". He took on challenging, ambitious, hard-working roles that the public valued and respected from him alone. All this and much more to redeem the honest respect from the applause of his fans during his life, and now forever more.
A Thank you to his mother, siblings, wife, and children for instilling qualities that made him such an endearing person to his fans.
God Bless, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Rest in Peace!

my condolences to his family & friends
he will be missed by many.

I was watching the local news when they spoke of Philip Seymour Hoffman's death. My friend that was with me and I both gasped. We have been dealing with some personal issues of the same kind within our circle of friends. Of course I am the only one in our circle who has followed any of the actor's work. I feel for his family and know that he will always be remembered for being one of the best actor's ever.

I think that Philip was an individual who was just too intelligent and sensitive to survive in this cold, cruel world!
I hope that his untimely death helps people understand the harm that the secrecy of drug addiction can cause and that this will cause a change in the way society treats the drug addict.
I further hope that his family can find the courage to endure the pain of his loss!
I think that I would have liked to meet Philip and I would have been proud to have him as a friend!

I am so deeply saddened by Mr
Hoffman's death. He was one of my favorite actors because he made the ordinary man the star of the show. His death comes at a time in my life when I am struggling with issues also I guess that is one reason his death carries so much more meaning. His incredible briillance in portraying ordinary people touched so many including myself. My heart grieves for him and those in his personal and professional life.

I was stunned when I heard the terrible news. He was such a gifted actor. My thoughts are with his family and friends. What a loss.

Condolences to Mimi O'Donnell and children, 

Amidst this painful and shocking news please draw a bit of comfort from the encouraging thoughts and especially the scriptural references in this guest book.  Find comfort in knowing that Philip is in God's memory, with so many others of our dear ones. It will help you day to day in finding endurance.

Draw close to family and friends for support during these difficult times.

So very sad. My heart goes out to his family.

I would like to offer my deepest condolences to the Hoffman family. I still cannot believe this has happened to such a decent, gifted man. I will miss his talented acting. The world has gotten a little more boring and colder.

Goodbye Phil.

A talent that will be missed. May God bless you and those who love you !

HeartBroken Prayers for Family, Friends and Us Fans...God Speed, May He Rest in Heavenly Peace.

Heroin...taking more loved one's lives daily so very sad.

Awesome actor, RIP, you will

You will be missed

Heartbroken

I am so very sorry for the loss of your partner, father, son, and friend. I cannot imagine the hole in your hearts. I hope you are able to feel close to him and feel some small moments of peace, even with all the waves of grief. Sending you love and hope for healing.

"What lies deep within your heart cannot be lost through death" Goethe

We've lost a wonderful, brillant actor rest in peace my brother....

My heart breaks for Philip's family and friends. My life was graced by his brilliance and talent. He will be sorely missed on this earth.

As a fan, I will miss Mr. Hoffman. He was a wonderful actor who allowed the viewer to go along as he acted through the movie or play. Almost as though he tucked us in his pocket and allowed us an up close and personal journey with him. He was that good. I was so saddened to hear of his passing. My prayers for you, his family for you lost far more than I. A fan.

Mimi, I too have gone through watching my partner in the throes of this addiction. I truly understand your loss. Words cannot really help at this time, but know that a stranger is praying for you and your family. PSH was so loved and his legacy will live on. Peace and blessings to you as you navigate the difficult days and months ahead. Take things a minute at a time and you will get through it. Much love, Donna.

A truly unique and outstanding talent, I have enjoyed each of the characters you created and I mourn terribly your loss. I cannot even imagine the pain your Friends and Family must feel, or the gap you left in the lives you touched personally. You touched mine and your work will live forever. From Scent of Woman through your Oscar winning role Capote to all the roles that should have won like Charlie Wilson's War and some of your recent work, Thanks Phil, rest now with the angels.

May you rest now ... Philip Seymour was a phenomenal Actor such a great talent lost

As someone struggling with addiction, I understand all too well what Mr. Hoffman went through. To his family, I don't know you, but offer my thoughts and prayers, and my deepest condolences.

Hometown boy, rest in peace, the world has lost a great talent.

So sorry to hear about the sudden passing of such a great actor . Gone too soon but never forgotten .

In Jesus' bosom. Until Eternity, when you will join your beloved.

May your family be wrapped by the loving arms of God. PSH WAS an amazing actor/performer. He will be greatly missed. Know he is at peace with God and himself, and you will be with him again in time.

Absolutely LOVED you in all of your movies...what a great performer you were...you will live on in our hearts and we are able to see you again in what you left behind. But you will rise when He calls your name...no more sorrow, no more pain. Rest in peace good man.

Our heartfelt condolences to the family, colleagues, and close friends of Philip Seymour Hoffman for your untimely loss. He was indeed a very talented actor and genuine friend. Although I did not know him personally, the endearing comments made by those who knew him well speak much of his inner beauty and loving character. As you reminisce over the good times that you shared with Phil, remember to draw close to God for comfort and he will respond to your needs abundantly. Today, we remember Philip with thanks for the way he entertained through the years and with great joy in our hearts.

Talent shared with all...Moments to cherish....Legacy will live on....Peace....

I've been an avid movie fan for my entire life, and was devastated at the news of Philip Seymour Hoffman's passing. Although he left us days ago, my tears continue to fall for him whenever his name is mentioned, his photo is shown - and even as I write this. Living in Rochester NY most of my adult life, I always assumed I would someday witness a live performance of his, catch a hometown appearance promoting a film - or even see him at a random Wegman's while home for the holidays. Sadly, it was not meant to be, and I will forever regret not having made it a priority previously. Philip was my absolute favorite actor, and I ranked him at the very top of the talent list for his generation. I considered each of his movies to be a gift to the world, especially now that he's gone - and I'm so grateful I have a copy of each one! Philip Seymour Hoffman was a brilliant actor that will never be forgotten; forever be admired. I am relieved for him personally, no longer having to fight his demons. I am so very sorry for his friends and family, experiencing, I suspect, gut wrenching grieve for this amazing man.

My heart, thoughts and prayers are with all of Philip's family and friends. May God bless and comfort all of you at this difficult time. Philip was a very talented actor. His portrayal of Truman Capote was absolutely brilliant. He will be missed by all of us. May he rest in peace.

A light to find your way home PSH peace be with you now.

I don't know what to say, beyond heartbroken over the loss of Philip Seymour Hoffman of course only seen him in movies but so talented. My prayers for his family and prayers for his Soul... You will be so missed. ' Om Mani Padme Hum ' God bless..

My condolences to the Hoffman family for the sudden loss of Phil. He was a wonderful actor that swept us away into his character's life. May God comfort you through this difficult time.

Offering my deepest condolences to the Hoffman family. May God grant you strength and courage as you face the coming days.

May God be with all of his loved ones during this horrible confusing time in their life! All my thoughts and prayers will be with you at this time! He will certainly be missed by everyone! What a wonderful, brilliant presence he had! Such a sad ending to a person who seemed so kind! May he Rest in Peace!

[ am sure his untimely death w[ll not be vain and will help others to that drug addiction is a progressive and fatal disease

My deepest Sympathy To The O'Donnell, O'Connor, and Hoffman Families. What an excruciating loss of the talented Mr. Phillip Seymour Hoffman, My heart aches for Ms. O'Donnell, and her children. Life is precarious at best, while the world is crushed by such a great loss, Mr. Hoffman's work remains a tribute to his talent. My heart goes out to Miss O" Donnell and her precious children.

SUCH A TRADGEDY AND GREAT LOSS OF A BEAUTIFULLY TALENTED MAN. WE BACK HOME WATCHED HIM IN ALL HIS TALENTS WITH GREAT FONDNESS AND ADMIRATION.

I hope you rest in peace

I have no words to express my shock and sadness and if I as a fan feel this way I can not begin to imagine the shock and sadness of PSH family, friends and other fans. No other actor can ever measure up to the talent he expressed in his films and on stage. What gifts of gems he has left for us to watch on our DVDs and at the movies. That brings a smile to my face:):):) May each of you be given more than enough strength to carry you through the hurt and pain you must have in your hearts. Remember all of the joyous and love filled times you shared. May you now experience the love, light, kindness and compassion of God expressing through all who you come in contact with. You are in my thoughts and prayers and I send you much love!

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

To the Family and Friends of Philip Seymour Hoffman,
I am so sorry for your loss. I pray for you and the children. As you deal with this loss, pray, pray, and pray!!!
May precious memories bring you comfort.
God Bless You All.

Shocked and saddened by the death of such a tormented genius. You were simply the best.

For Philip's friends and family, my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this awful time. God Bless you!

I have never been so affected by the loss of someone I didn't know personally before. Phil was the most amazing actor and from interviews and NYC events I attended, he seemed to be very sweet and humble and goofy. I loved him as much as I could love a performer, and I am truly saddened by his death. As for his friends and family, I am so very sorry for your loss.

May Dusty rest in piece. (Twister)

To The Hoffman Family, You have been on my mind this week. I never knew Philip. I did like him as an actor. But I know how painful loss is. In 2007, I lost my sister in law, my cat, my father, my mother and some friends. I made a promise when my mother died to be there for others when they have a loss. I was heartbroken. I have been praying for you. I'm sorry for the loss of Philip and the empty space in your family. I'm sending prayers and love your way.

You were the best and you will be missed tremendously. Much sympathy to your precious family. ED(Chicago)

Rest In Peace.....

Psalm 46:1

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

THE SAD LOSS OF A SUPER TALENTED PERSON.

Almighty God can revive the heart of those ones being crushed, due to the loss of a love one. Isaiah 57:15 my condolences to each of you.

There but for the Grace of God goes I.

You will be missed PSH.

"THE time you won your town the race
We chaired you through the market-place;
Man and boy stood cheering by,
And home we brought you shoulder-high.

Smart lad, to slip betimes away
From fields where glory does not stay,
And early though the laurel grows
It withers quicker than the rose.

Now you will not swell the rout
Of lads that wore their honours out,
Runners whom renown outran
And the name died before the man.

And round that early-laurelled head
Will flock to gaze the strengthless dead,
And find unwithered on its curls
The garland briefer than a girl's."

You will always be alive in me, your brilliant work will live forever. My deepest condolences to your friends and family whose pain I cannot even imagine. Rest peacefully dear Phil. x
