Reaction to death of actor Roger Moore at age 89

In his most famous roles as an actor, Sir Roger was the epitome of cool sophistication; but in his work as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, he was a passionate — and highly persuasive — advocate for children.

UNICEF executive director Anthony Lake in a statement.

— The first leading role I ever had as a Bond girl was such a new and frightening world and Roger held my hand and guided me through every process.

Through his lifelong work with UNICEF he showed me the true meaning of being a humanitarian and giving back.

Hands held out 2 those affected. #allies — Jamie Lee Curtis, who posted a photo of her father and Moore together on Twitter.

Loving thoughts w his family & friends.
