Carpenter himself paid tribute to Cyphers on Twitter, expressing his sadness at the loss of his longtime collaborator. “He was an early and frequent collaborator with me on my early movies,” Carpenter wrote. “A kind man, he was a friend. I shall miss him.”
Charles Cyphers has passed away. He was an early and frequent collaborator with me on my early movies. A kind man, he was a friend. I shall miss him.

Cyphers first portrayed Sheriff Leigh Brackett in the original Halloween (1978), a film that has since become a cornerstone of the horror genre. He reprised the role in Halloween II (1981), directed by Rick Rosenthal, and returned once more for Halloween Kills (2021), directed by David Gordon Green.
Beckett’s character is especially significant in the Halloween mythology, as his daughter, Annie (played by Nancy Kyes), is one of Michael Myers’ victims in the first film.
