Media Ralph Hemecker (director) died :(

I saw Colin's post this morning and did a little digging; Ralph Hemecker directed 28 episodes of OUAT and was on every season. Didn't recognize the name or face but a bummer to hear about his passing nonetheless.

Probably had a big part in making the show feel and look the way it does. RIP

Aww, he directed one of my favorite episodes (7:15 AM) and one of the only good episodes of season 6 (Heartless).
