Defensive lineman great and actor Merlin Olsen has passed away. Many folks remember Olsen for his roles in "Little House on the Prarie", "Father Murphy", and "Aaron's Way". Others remember him for his dominance during the 1960s, where he was one of the "feasome foursome" for the Rams.

This gentle giant was a class act, a powerful player, and was loved well beyond the football community.

MHR's prayers go out to Merlin and his family.
