Veteran character actor Harry Carey Jr., who appeared in scores of television shows and films including nine of famed movie director John Ford’s classic Hollywood Westerns, has died at age 91, his family said on Friday.

Carey’s more notable big-screen credits included a co-starring role with John Wayne in Ford’s 1948 outlaw film “3 Godfathers,” the role of a young calvary officer in Ford’s 1949 western “She Wore a Yellow Ribbon,” also with Wayne, and a turn decades later in a saloon scene in the 1990 sci-fi comedy “Back to the Future Part III.”

In all, he made 11 movie appearances with Wayne.

Among other Ford-directed films in which Carey appeared were “The Searchers” (1956), “Wagon Master” (1950) and “Rio Grande“ (1950).

Rest in Peace Mr. Carey.
