He was perfect as the Grandpa in The Princess Bride.
Grandpa: That's right. When I was your age, television was called books. And this is a special book. It was the book my father used to read to me when I was sick, and I used to read it to your father. And today I'm gonna read it to you. The Grandson: Has it got any sports in it? Grandpa: Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles...

Columbo's dead?!?!
Aw shit!  Loved those shows. As a kid I had to go to bed early, but couldn't sleep (never been able to), but, after Momdigr went to bed, I could sneak back to the living room and watch the rest of whatever Popdigr was watching until the news came on. A lot of times it was Columbo...

Maybe at his funeral the lid of the coffin will open and he'll sit up and say 'Just one more thing....'

I liked a lot of his work but my favorite was as Sam Diamond in "Murder By Death" with Truman Capote.

We were just doing this bit. My brother told us that he wasn't thinking and opened an upsrairs window and his a/c fell to its death. I was kidding that I was going to come by and do a crime scene investigation thing (putting on sunglasses, saying it was pushed...'looks like we have a cold case' yeahhhhhhhhh) and brother did the columbo bit as he was leaving. It was spot on, and we laughed and laughed. Rip Mr Falk.

I was just remembering Falk as Joy Boy in A Pocketful of Miracles. Funny stuff.

Had no idea Truman Capote was in it! But then when I first watched it I had no idea who he was (forgive me, a provincial teen) and after that I just accepted the performances for what they were. In fact despite reading his books, I had no idea what he looked or sounded like until reading an article which included his disparaging review of Audrey Hepburn singing Moon River. The journalist let fly about Truman's own shortcomings. Back to Peter Falk - the part was well written and he embodied it perfectly. He was one of my secret heroes because he appeared to have ptosis (in fact it was a glass eye). I could not watch Columbo with anyone else in the room in case they made a comparison. It's sad when anyone dies, but when people have dementia their passing must be slightly easier for their loved ones; the person has already slipped beyond their reach.
