Charles Heston, best known for his roles in Planet Of The Apes, and The Ten Commandments died today at his home in Beverly Hills. Heston had been fighting Alzheimer disease since being diagnosed in 2002 and has recently been shown much more frail then ever before. No immediate diagnosis has been given for Heston death. He was 84 years old.

The honkers staff would like to give our condolences to the family and friends. He was a legend, an Icon, and everything that was pure about his field. He will be missed.
