Rest in Peace, Donald Sutherland, and thank you for so many memorable film performances.
Canadian actor Donald Sutherland has passed away. His humble performance as Jane Austen’s Mr Bennet in the 2005 “Pride and Prejudice” will forever be held close to our hearts. May he rest peacefully in heart and soul #RIP

I spontaneously hijacked my husband's Saturday with a 10-point cleaning plan, but he was very sweet about it and even bought me a 4-cheese-burger at the end of the day, so hubby of the year award goes to My Man.
