In 1995, this Dallas actor nearly lost his life to liver failure. He was given a transplant just in time to save his life. He died over a decade later in 2012 at the age of 81. He lived just long enough to reprise his role in the 2012 reboot of the hit soap opera as the villainous oil baron J.R. Ewing.
