Don S. Davis who played Major General George Hammond on Stargate passed away yesterday from a heart attack.
Don played General Hammond for 7 years before departing the show in 2003 due to a medical condition. He did however make a number of guest appearances in SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis over the following years, most recently reprising the role for the Stargate: Continuum movie.
Gateworld.net has a touching obituary.
Don’s family are asking for people to make a donation to the American Heart Association if they wish to do something in in Don’s memory.
Thank you Don for your wonderful years of bringing one of our favourite Stargate characters to the screen.
Rest in Peace.
