Al Strobel, the one-armed man from 'Twin Peaks,' has passed away at the age of 83.

on a lot of projects over the years. She took to Facebook to write,"I am sad to have to post that Al Strobel passed away last night. I loved him dearly."Strobel is best known for playing the one-armed man during pretty much every"Twin Peaks" installment -- including the original TV show from the early '90s, the spinoff movie thereafter and the reboot from 2017 ... for all of which he always reprised his role as Phillip Gerard.

Gerard was a traveling shoe salesman who'd occasionally get possessed by a spirit known as Mike -- who used to work with another shady character named Bob ... the entity that inhabited Leland Palmer, who ultimately killed Laura Palmer -- the central character. His character comes in and out of the plot a lot throughout the full 'TW' saga ... and was oftentimes featured in bizarre dream sequences that's character, Agent Cooper, would find himself in ... all in an effort to unspool the big murder mystery.

Through it all ... Strobel always nailed it in his performances, which were kinda campy -- but so good too. He was an amputee in real life ... having lost his arm in a car accident. In addition to his"Twin Peaks" role, Strobel also acted in films like"Megaville,""Sitting Target,""Child of Darkness, Child of Light,""Ricochet River" and more.
