Heston's Legacy
1 of 13
Charlton Heston.....................

Charlton Heston died in Beverly Hills with his wife Lydia by his side. The
two had been married for 64 years. Here, they are seen at a "90 Stars for 90
Years" party in 2002.
Powers declined to comment on the cause of death or provide further details.

"Charlton Heston was seen by the world as larger than life. He was known for
his chiseled jaw, broad shoulders and resonating voice, and, of course, for
the roles he played," Heston's family said in a statement. "No one could ask
for a fuller life than his. No man could have given more to his family, to
his profession, and to his country."

Heston revealed in 2002 that he had symptoms consistent with Alzheimer's
disease, saying, "I must reconcile courage and surrender in equal measure."

With his large, muscular build, well-boned face and sonorous voice, Heston
proved the ideal star during the period when Hollywood was filling movie
screens with panoramas depicting the religious and historical past. "I have a face
that belongs in another century," he often remarked.

Publicist Michael Levine, who represented Heston for about 20 years, said
the actor's passing represented the end of an iconic era for cinema.


If anyone is interested in the Vietnam War, or would just like to peek in

a legacy in the making, go to www.DearMaxie.com. It's pretty cool.

I also did my husband and his brother too.
