Actor Charles 'Chuck' Low, who famously appeared in Goodfellas and The Sopranos, has passed away at the age of 89.

An obituary published on The Times' Legacy website says that Low passed away peacefully in his sleep at the Allendale Nursing Home in New Jersey.

Born in 1928, Low was originally an estate consultant and landlord, with one of his tenants being none other than this guy:

It was Robert De Niro who got Low into acting, and the two starred in The King of Comedy, The Mission and Once Upon a Time in America.

But his most famous role is as 'Morrie's Wig Shop' Morrie from the iconic hit movie Goodfellas.

His obituary states that the actor was laid to rest in his family plot, following a military service that included a three-gun salute and taps.

The family thanked the Allendale Nursing Home for looking after him with 'dignity' and asked that donations be made to mental health charities rather than sending flowers.

Frank Vincent, who also appeared in various mob movies thanks to Robert De Niro, recently passed away at the age of 78 due to complications following heart surgery.

Both actors were in The Sopranos, with Chuck Low appearing in the first season while Frank Vincent played the villainous Phil Leotardo.
