Veteran actor Robert Trebor known for starring in projects such as Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess has sadly passed away at the age of 71.
His cause of death is from sepsis on March 11, years after he received his diagnosis for leukemia in 2012. After his diagnosis, he underwent a stem cell transplant a year later.
The news of his passing was announced by his wife, Deirdre Hennings to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Mr. Trebor's talent, humor, energy and enthusiasm will be greatly missed by all who knew him, most especially by his wife," reads his obituary.
Trebor’s most well known role took place in 1995 when he appeared on Hercules: The Legendary Journeys in which he took on the role of the merchant Salmoneus. He then ended up reprising the role by appearing in Xena: Warrior Princess in some episodes.
About his character’s arc, he said in an interview that it was "to try to be a good person, but his essential mercantile instincts kept interfering with that."
The actor continued, “I never saw him as a thief. [Bruce Campbell's] Autolycus was the thief. I never saw him as a con man either, although I could understand why other people could. He was just a very enthusiastic guy who didn’t read the fine print and needed to make a living when he wasn’t a farmer or fighter. He lived by his glib tongue.”
