    RIP Don S. Davis (Gen. George Hammond Star Gate)

    Stargate's Davis Is Dead

    Gateworld reported that Don S. Davis, who played Maj. Gen. George Hammond on SCI FI Channel's Stargate SG-1 for seven seasons, died June 29 after suffering a heart attack. He was 65.

    Citing Davis' wife, Ruby Fleming-Davis, the site reported that a family memorial will take place in a few weeks during which Davis' ashes will be scattered in the ocean; fans were asked to make memorial donations to the American Heart Association.

    Davis left the regular cast of SG-1 in 2003 because of a medical condition that restricted his workload, but he made several guest appearances on the show and its spinoff, Stargate Atlantis.

    A native of Missouri, Davis had a 26-year career that included many roles on TV series, notably Maj. Garland Briggs on Twin Peaks. He met SG-1 co-star Richard Dean Anderson on the set of MacGyver, on which he worked as a stunt double for actor Dana Elcar.

    Davis' final Stargate appearance is in Stargate: Continuum, the upcoming straight-to-DVD movie. He will also appear in the films Vipers, Woodshop and Far Cry.

          well I guess its his turn to step into the light and explore another dimention. God speed sir, we'll miss you here.
          Lo there do I see my Father.
          Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
          Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
          Lo they do call me.
          They bid me take my place among them.
          In the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.

            He played that part well. He had the military look to him. Shows are never the same when a major character is gone. Wonder how this will affect SG-1. RIP General Hammond
