RIP. It took an actor of some talent to bring life to Odo. He did it very well. I remember him in M*A*S*H the movie.

Aside from everything mentioned, one of the best and most prolific voice actors of the last 40 years.  RIP.

Also, as Cyrano pointed out over on the other forum: his middle name was Murat, and he was directly descended from both THE Napoleonic Marshal Murat, and also from Napoleon's sister (who married Murat).

Nope, I didn't know that either.

Still kind of in shock over his death.  Odo was one of my favorite characters.  It was not a good week for Star Trek alumni.  :(

Yep.  From his IMDB bio: 

QuoteHis mother was Princess Laure Louise Napoléone Eugénie Caroline Murat (November 13, 1913 - May 10, 1986) and on her side, Rene was descended from Joachim [Napoléon] Murat, King of Naples and King of Sicily, formerly Grand-Duke of Berg and Kleve, and his wife (Marie Annonciade) Caroline Bonaparte, sister of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte of France.
