His family, relatives, friends and colleagues came to say goodbye to the actor for the last time.
On Thursday, starting at 4 in the afternoon, the actor’s relatives, colleagues and colleagues gathered to say goodbye to Fr. Dimša in the Vilnius church of Blessed Jurgis Matulaitis. In the armory room, the patriarchs shared the memories of the deceased, and more and more white flowers were next to the urn.
Kaspar, nephew of P. Dimša, who met at the funeral home on Thursday, agreed to share his memories of his famous uncle.
“15 years ago when I applied to the LMTA, my grandfather’s brother helped me prepare a little for the participants. I stayed with him in the garden. I remember rehearsing the studies. He made all kinds of comments to me about what was better or different. He was a warm, extremely positive and eager man. I don’t know deeply about his personal life, but when viewed from the side, he communicates very openly and accepts everyone. If you are poor or rich, or have an important status, or a completely ordinary person from the field. He always communicated with everyone equally. The jokes were often broken, the harmonica played beautifully. I remember my mother telling me when I was cycling through town without my hands and I could still play the harmonica at the same time, ”Kaspar told Delfi.
News of the death of the 81-year-old actor this Wednesday Delphi confirmed by producer Algirdas Žvinakevičius. To his knowledge, the actor died after a long and serious illness.
“It’s hard for me to say if it was yesterday at some point at the end of the day or today, but it happened. He became very ill and died. He may have died last night, but I only got the news today, “said A. Žvinakevičius.
P. Dimša graduated from Veisiejai High School in 1958 and in 1977 from the Leningrad State Institute of Theater, Music and Cinematography (St. Petersburg), where he acquired the specialty of film and television director. In 1965, together with the poet Martynas Vainilaitis, he founded the Boy’s Pea Theater. Since 1971 he works on Lithuanian television.
He has been a director and actor in many television movies. He has starred in popular television series such as Relatives, Dapkas, and Butkai. He has published several books of poetry.
July 17, 2013 while intoxicated while driving a car, a cyclist was fatally run over. March 3, 2015, he was sentenced to 6 years in prison for this incident, but was released in 2018 by decision of the Kaunas Regional Court.
Legendary series director Saulius Vosylius told Delfi about the loss on Wednesday morning and recounted a strange coincidence.
“Around 10 in the morning they called me and told me. Surprisingly, last night I saw the rerun of the series “Familiares”. I turned on the television and just showed the scene with her. Coincidence. Well, we’ve been dating him for a long time. Our conversations were only on the phone, because he was already seriously ill … Although he never showed that it was difficult, it did him no good. His whole life was full of optimism and even in the most difficult moments of his life he was always full of optimism and joy. He was a man who had never caused a problem to anyone in his life. As early as 1993 In April we started filming “Relatives”, appeared in the first episode of the series. At first, he was assigned a small and episodic role, because he is not a professional actor, he is a poet, a director. They also sang, played. Since I had known him on television for many years and he seemed like an interesting character, we decided to give him the role of the farmer’s son, Juozas Šeputis, in the series. We quickly realized what a truly beautiful character he is. So both Bronius Bush and I started writing him a lot of episodes.
For the most part, the series was successful precisely because of the character of Juozas Šeputis. It was extremely expressive. Peter was different from professional actors in a way, but he was a very real, down to earth, organic and professional man. I know he had more than one illness, but he never complained. Even in the last “Familiares. Life goes on ”came the shoot with a pacemaker. But he never complained that it was bad for him. Sometimes, just when I involuntarily patted his hand, he would remind me, “Instead, don’t kill me, a stimulant.” He also wrote song lyrics and has published many books of poetry. Their tails are sincere, interesting. Communicating with him was always fun because he was full of humor and fantasy. And it was easy with him on the filming site, because he still had suggestions, ”said S. Vosylius about the series.
Meanwhile, the news about the death of a colleague was unexpected for actor Julius Žalakevičius, who played with P. Dimša in the series “Dapka and Butka”.
“I knew she was sick, but I hadn’t heard that she had died … We saw it a long time ago, but we always passed on wishes to each other through close people. I remember it only well. She was always cheerful, with a smile on her face. He had many stories, he was a good comedian, he was very good at playing the harmonica, even though I seem self-taught. They took that instrument and it was already fun. He was always full of ideas, advice that only benefited him, because he really had an eye and an inner sense of humor. It is a pity that this has happened. Condolences to all those close to him and those who knew him, ”said the Delfi actor.
Vaiva Mainelytė, who co-starred in the series “Relatives” with P. Dimša, does not hide that she feels uncomfortable over time, as more and more colleagues leave Anapilin.
“We knew each other for many years, maybe we even knew each other before the Familiars. He really was a very rich and warm personality, with an artistic soul. Peter wrote very beautiful lyric poems. As a human being, he was always attentive, cultured, personable. In the company, he did not attack during the holidays, he knew how to play the accordion. He was a talented and distinctive actor. Of course, he was also famous for his character from “Familiares”, with whom he entertained the series. I can’t … Looks like a weekly funeral. It becomes uncomfortable. You only recover after one death, look, another. And so close: Gražina Balandytė, Gediminas Girdvainis … Terror is something. Eternal rest for all. “I have great sympathy for Peter’s wife, family and relatives, as well as the entire ‘Familiares’ administrative and acting team, the actress said sensitively.
“All the characters in the series come out one after the other,” sighed the interlocutor.
When asked when she last had to interact with Ms Dimša, the actress made no secret of the fact that it was a long time ago.
“We spoke a long time ago, probably when we were still filming the return of the Relatives series 20 years later. He has already been tried for the terrible disaster that has befallen him, “he said.
