Given vals current demeanor , I'm not sure he remembers.
I shall make my wife watch the Real Batman Movie tonight in his honor. Pass me the Bat Shark Repellent, Robin!
You have to wonder if they will go with a Bad Coffin or Bat Urn.
I think he would approve.
RIP.
Loved this dude, so very sad to see...
After the later movies came out, I saw him quoted as saying something to the effect of "I didn't need a plastic chest plat to show my pect's."
RIP. I shall remember him with humor. Like the story of his voice work for family guy. He showed up in a bathrobe, did his lines and left. On his way out he noticed a bowl of M&Ms on the reception desk. He proceeded to dump the entire bowl into the pockets of his robe.
I liked him........... will miss him 
Sad to hear it. That dude was awesome.
"Sorry old chum."
Also I just watched this last night. Zombie Nightmare and nicely commentated on by the MST3K cast. He was unintentionally hilarious.
Other actors played Batman, but Adam West was Batman to me.
When I cared most about Batman, it was Adam West's Batman. My dad would rush me home from preschool just in time for it. My mom made me an awesome Batman costume.
We had a strict "No TV during dinner" rule. There were 2 exceptions: Batman and The Wizard of Oz.

Mayor west was one of the best things on that show.
A man who utterly embraced nerd culture and the cheesiness of his own image. I had no idea he was that old. RIP, Mayor West.
When I was a little kid I used to watch the '60s Batman on antenna TV every day, and I took that E36 M3 seriously, don't ask me how. And as I got older I could enjoy the show all over again!
Tonight we should all punch a shark in Adam West's honor...

...in Arkham City, of course.
and not just any shark, but an exploding shark.
Atomic batteries to power, turbines to speed. Move out, Mr West.
