88 years old, and went peacefully in his sleep.... You can't really ask for more than that.

God love you, sir.

RIP Marshal.

I remember reading years ago, that he was the first ashore at Anzio. They didn't know how deep the water was and since he was the tallest in his Platoon, his Platoon Sgt made him jump off the landing craft ramp first!

Wouldn't do any good. The ACLU would just sue him...

End of an era. Matt Dillon was the longest running dramatic character in TV history. Miss Kitty would have been proud.

Marshals, one L. Those that earned that title are cops, not a department store.
