The memorial service for actor and friend Carmen Argenziano has been set, and fans and friends all over the world can participate by means of an online live stream.
Carmen’s family has set the service for Saturday, March 2 at 4:30 p.m. Pacific time in Burbank, California. It will be held at the American Lutheran Church of Burbank.
The event mourning Carmen’s passing and celebrating his life will be streamed on the church’s Facebook page.
Carmen passed away February 9 at the age of 75.
For seven seasons on Stargate SG-1 he played the beloved character of Jacob Carter, Sam’s father and Earth’s liaison to the Tok’ra. He appeared in more than two dozen episodes.
At the end of his career Carmen had more than 200 television and film acting credits to his name.

Just finished viewing the memorial service that was posted on Facebook from the Lutheran Church in CA. Glad they made it available for those who missed it. I had missed it when it first began, so Thanks for the Lutheran Church for keeping it posted.:-) Beautiful service! I was however surprised that no one from Stargate was at the service. Didn’t see RDA, Amanda, Michael, or Chris there. Maybe they sent their condolences by email. Who knows. But I hope they sent the family members some kind of condolences. Carmen was such an integral part of Stargate, being Sam’s father.… Read more »
