On my way home from work, I pay my respects to Rob Reiner and talk about the impact he made on me as an actor through films, before even finding out he was a great director.

I was more impacted by Rob Reiner as an actor. First in Throw Momma From the Train, then in Bye, Bye Love. Then, I found out he was Meathead in All In the Family, and most recently he was hilarious in The Wolf of Wall Street.

He will be sorely missed, but never forgotten. Just like his dad. RIP.
