Phil Fish on the television sitcom series Barney Miller from 1975 to 1977 and its spinoff show Fish in 1978, both on ABC. Vigoda died on January 26, 2016, at his daughter's home in Woodland Park, New Jersey.

Can't forget his role as Sal in The Godfather...

This has been a rough year, Abe was famous for 5 decades!

Abe Vigoda's style of humor is a large part of what made the cast of "Barney Miller" into one of the best TV sitcoms...then and now. One of the few shows I would watch on a regular basis...

Amazing that he looked old 40 yrs. ago. I do not think many young people know (or have watched) Barney Miller. I use to watch it with my late Father. Great memories.
