The entertainment community is coming out to honor a legend. 

Following James Earl Jones‘ death on Sept. 9 at the age of 93, many in Hollywood shared memories and tributes to the actor, who was known for his deep and iconic voice which could be heard in films like Star Wars and The Lion King.

Mark Hamill—who played Luke Skywalker to Jones’ Darth Vader in Star Wars—had a special message for his onscreen father, writing on Instagram, “One of the world’s finest actors whose contributions to Star Wars were immeasurable. He’ll be greatly missed. #RIP dad”

As Star Trek alum LeVar Burton noted, “There will never be another of his particular combination of graces.”

Just days before Jones’ passing, Terrence Howard recalled meeting the legendary actor, expressing how struck he was by his kindness. 

“He looked me in the eye and treated me like a man,” he told E! News at the premiere of Fight Night Sept. 4, “even though I was a kid. He made a huge difference.”
