SO LONG, ART LAFLEUR

Most will recall you from your baseball movies: The Sandlot (as Babe Ruth), Mr. Baseball and of course, The Twlight-Zone-ish Field of Dreams

In addition to Field of Dreams, you covered  several other imagi-movies. as well as productions that brimmed of pulp-ish action and zesty comedy, including The Blob '88; The Invisible Woman '83; Zone Troopers; Trancers II; Trancers: City of Lost AngelsThe RigJekyll and Hyde...Together AgainSpeed Racer '08; The Santa Clause 2 & 3; Beethoven's 4th; A Cinderella Story; Rescue from Gilligan's Island; Best of the Best 4; First Kid; The Replacements; Ace Ventura: Pet Detective; Man of the HouseAir America; House HuntingRampage '87; CobraCity Heat; Death Warrant; Maverick '94; and a many more. 

In each instance, your burly persona and twinkle-in-the-eye charm made a lasting impression. There's no doubt you'll be remembered, Mr. LaFleur, and your work revisited for as long as folks watch movies: in other words, a very long time.
