Aw man, very sad. I actually got to meet him once. I used to work behind the security checkpoint as a bartender at the Columbus airport. He and his father came thru the checkpoint one day and the TSAs called me over to show me something. And there was Mr. Peek and his father coming through security. I got to hold his Oscar award that he had received for the inspiration of Rain Man which he apparently carried with him everywhere and shake hands with his father.It was a really neat experience. I'm sad to learn he has passed.
