    Loved both Moore and Connery playing the role of James Bond. They set the bar very high.

    Rest In Paradise Sir Moore

    He did a lot for UNICEF during his life. And no matter what, being a knight is just cool. And so is being James Bond

    RIP Roger Moore. Thank you for all the wonderful memories. You were the very definition of classy.

    Roger Moore was always a 'Class Act'.

    I hope others can read what his children had posted online:

    To me, Moore wasn't the best Bond (not starting to kick off THAT debate here!!), but as someone who grew up in the 70s, he just *was* Bond then, and so always kind of will be for me. As others have said, he seemed like a truly class act, a real gentleman, and will be missed terribly.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
