Sopranos fans are mourning a huge loss.

Vincent Pastore—best known for his role as Salvatore “Big P—y” Bonpensiero in the HBO series—has died, his managers Robert Attermann and Bob McGowan confirmed to E! News on Aug. 1. He was 80.

“I had the privilege of representing Vinny for more than 30 years, long before The Sopranos made him a household name,” Attermann told E! News in a statement. “To the world, he will always be remembered as the unforgettable ‘Big P—y,’ but to those of us who knew him, he was so much more.”

According to Attermann, Pastore, a prominent figure in mob dramas in both film and television, was “one of the kindest, most generous people I have ever known,” who “treated everyone with warmth and respect, never turning down a fan who wanted a photograph or an autograph.”

McGowan called Pastore’s passing “heartbreaking,” noting that he was “so sad” over the news.
