| (CNN) -- Actor James Avery, who played the beloved Uncle Phil on the hit 1990s sitcom "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," has died, his publicist said Wednesday. He was 68. The cause of death was complications from open-heart surgery, said his manager, Toni Benson. Avery had surgery on November 11 and died Tuesday evening at a hospital in Glendale, California, according to Benson."WILL!" Always made me laugh when I heard Uncle Phil yell at Will for doing something irresponsible. Being a 90's kid, I had a nice variety of cartoons and black comedy shows to laugh and enjoy. One of my favorite show was The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air when it came on early in the morning and late at night. The thing about James Avery did with his character, Uncle Phil, made us feel like he was a uncle to us too. He was loving, caring, a great role model, and he was always there his love ones. What he has done for television, for African-Americans on television was unsurpassable. I wish I could have met such a great man as him while he was still alive. He was a second father to me and I will miss him greatly. |

| The man was well loved and will be missed, but never forgotten. So long as we remember him and look back fondly on what he did and gave the world, he will never truly die. Sleep well James Avery. May the angels sing thee to thine rest. |
