@Idolmakercat Hi - I feel the same way you do. What an actor and performer. But they labeled him with the passing of HIV back in the day we hardly knew anything about AIDS. Said he purposely passed it on to women. I can't remember the 80's too much, but everybody was freaking out. Remember, how many ways they thought you could pass this and everybody was afraid. Just saying.....

Is Ray singing? If yes, is it lip synching? If no, who is actually singing?
-
@westeightyone Is this first hand information? Are you a family member that knew all the intimate details of his life?

@Sirgreaseflick It is not good to talk ill of the dead. One day you will be dead, and how do you want people to talk about you?

Can't say I sympathise with Ray, sorry. In the Book of Movie Obituaries Fade To Black, he's referred to as an "Evil Bastard." He callously disregarded the fact that he had AIDS to sleep with an infect several women with the deadly virus. Additionally, he was hardly DeNiro. And his voice is irritating.

he was a good actor, I saw him in atlanta, my favorite is wise guys with danny devito and joe piscapo, comedy, he was a great loss to acting, one of the best character actors around,

You can see Ray Sharkey in the short lived Wiseguy series with Ken Wahl. It is the first season and he plays a mobster named Sonny Steelgrave.

thanks for the informed update!
How sad. I didn't even know he died until of was watching the idolmaker and did a google search for him and found out he had died. I was mad and sad because he had so much talent and I wanted to see more of him.
