I am so so saddened by the death of the absolutely magnificent LEX- what an amazingly talented creative genius
He will be sorely missed
He and I will be forever bonded because LEXX not only put me on the map science fiction wise as an actor but his name and I are linked because GIGGEROTA came from his name!
Will never forget that - will never forget you!
I am so shocked by this news and wish his family my sincerest condolences .
May you find the brightest Supernova Lex and shine down on us!!!!!
I love you
I will miss you; I will never forget you!

I don't want to believe it. I can't believe it. The amazing incredible Lex, who gave his name to our wonderful Lexx, cannot have left us so soon. It isn't right and it isn't fair. Lex, we hardly knew ye. Our friend, our entertainer, our wonderful funny man, what will we do without you?
Please, someone, tell me this is a very bad joke...I need a drink.
Edit: Hours and hours later, I'm still dumbfounded by this. How is it possible that we have to do without this genius? I'm so thankful we have Lexx to remember him by, not to mention Dr Rainbow and His Devine Shadow as well as the pilot from Lister, or was it Leester? and all the wonderful other parts he played in the series.

Why is it always the best ones who are taken from their friends and loved ones way WAY before their time?
Ellen Dubin posted a wonderful little eulogy of her own on Facebook today about how much she admired him and will miss him.
I started crying........
Viola Sapphire will now become Viola Sapphire Lex in his honor. This man's life and work should never be forgotten.

So Sad
I couldn't believe it when I heard this. I had the privilege of meeting this lovely man at a Lexx uncon in Halifax some years ago. He had such a kind and generous spirit. He has left a legacy of work for us to appreciate. My condolences to his family and close friends at such a sad time. :-(

So sad to hear of Lex's passing. My condolences to his family. He will be missed by his fans and friends. At least his creativity lives on in Lexx and his other creations for those of us left to enjoy.

My deepest condolences.
For what it is worth, I have been involved in a few threads--sadly--for people who have passed away, such as Douglas Adams. It does help the family to know so many people that they would never meet or know feel some of the loss they feel.
Perhaps an Admin or someone who has contact with actors/producers can forward a link to this thread to the family. Might help to know how many share in this loss.

Too soon.
49 is just way too soon.
In time I'll try to find something a little more eloquent to say. Until then, I'll leave it at this: I'll forever be indebted to Lex for the fearless creative vision he shared with us. Were it not for him and his motley crew of misfits, I never would have fallen in with THIS motley crew of misfits. I'm gonna have to invent a word to express how thankful I am for that.
Lex, wherever you are, I wish I'd gotten to know you better when I had the chance. Hopefully we'll bump into each other in the next cycle...

Discovering Lexx all those years ago is one of my fondest memories. The strangeness of it made such an impact on me. The world needs more people with quirky brains, but they keep being taken away. Mr. Gigeroff will be missed.

The great Mr. G wouldn't want any of his fans to be acting like blubbering fools, but I'm just still in shock and really truly sad.
Can't blame this one on the hormones. This is a massive FAIL on the part of the whole universe.....
I am wanting to make a tribute music video for Lex and am trying to think of the best song to use. But, every song that comes to mind just makes the tears start gushing again. I don't know if I can do this......
