Ryan O’Neal, who died today at 82, is being remembered by his co-stars today.

“Rest in peace dear Ryan,” tweeted Mia Farrow, who, along with O’Neal, found fame on the ’60s nighttime soap Peyton Place.

Lee Grant, another cast member, wrote, “Impossible to believe that Ryan O’Neal is gone. I felt so welcomed by his Peyton Place, the first big production brave enough to welcome me back from the blacklist. An incredible talent, an incredible beauty. A gift of an artist we’re luck to have so much of captured forever.”
