Not many are blest with such a long life (though I'm looking after a relative of 98)
Kirk Douglas was a real icon of our times. As well as his distinguished acting career, he was a writer and humanitarian, generous to philanthropic causes, supporting victims of the Hollywood blacklist, and receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom

Yes, we lost a great actor and humanitarian. Since he was likely the last actor from Hollywood's Golden Age, I think we sadly have to close the book on that era.
But we still have his great movies, and recorded examples of advocacy for right, to fall back on.
