Gene Hackman was found dead alongside his wife and their dog at their home in Santa Fe , New Mexico , earlier this week .

Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa lived in the quiet desert city for more than 20 years .

He was a lover of the arts and a painter himself, so he fit in well: Santa Fe is known for its iconic adobe architecture and is home to more than 250 art galleries.

He supported local businesses and enjoyed its flourishing arts scene.

At a local restaurant in town, customers told me they'd see him at the grocery store, or shopping on the high street.

David , the general manager of a shop in downtown Santa Fe where Hackman was a long-time patron, was holding back tears, remembering his friend and client.

"We lost a great Santa Fein ," he said.
