If you are a Star wars fan and have not seen the footage of Dave Prowse doing the voice of Vader in the initial shoot and then you see the re-master with JEJ's voice, then I urge you to. Not meant to be any criticism of Prowse, but it does emphasise the voice and how iconic it became with Vader. 
The Real Voice of Darth Vader...hilarious! (youtube.com)

Did well to get to 93 with that terrible asthma.

A very distinctive look and voice, but can't say I was a fan as such. A good innings.

A tremendous actor who managed to switch from Chief Snake Man in Conan the Barbarian working alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger to Philip Banks in The Fresh Prince alongside jug-eared moron Will Smith, almost as though he were two different men.

Good actor, will always remember him as the voice of Mufasa in the original Lion King.

Very much a silly cameo but I loved him as an impish prankster version of himself in The Big Bang Theory, playing knock down ginger on a gun-toting, grumpy Carrie Fisher. 

Great fun.

Sad news! - Great actor with that distinctive voice

I loved his line in Coming to America, “Leave him, I shall deal with him myself”
