(source: CNN.com, 08-24-05)

It's a sad news night for fans of the original Star Wars radio drama series by Brian Daley. CNN is reporting tonight that actor Brock Peters, who portrayed the role of Darth Vader in all three of the serialized radio dramas, has died at the age of 78. It is reported that he died peacefully in his bed with family at his side. The cause of death stems from his recent battle with pancreatic cancer.
