In Memoriam - Kenny Baker

R2-D2 is one of the most endearing characters not just for Star Wars, but all of fiction. And today, we remember the life inside the little droid. A little man named Kenny Baker.

Outside of Star Wars, Mr. Baker has acted in 18 movies (Amadeus, Time Bandits, and Willow among them) and made 9 TV show appearances (including The Muppet Show's "Stars of Star Wars"), but all will remember him as the lovable robotic companion of Luke Skywalker.

Here's to you, Kenneth George "Kenny" Baker. You will be missed.
