I just heard on the news. All they said was that he had been battling major depression as of late.

Hard to believe that someone with so many resources went out this way.

He was a hero of mine and perhaps the funniest man on the planet. I will miss him a lot. R.I.P. and thank you for all the laughs and the excellent acting.

He had recently gone through "rehab" whatever that is for celebrities.

How sad. Very, very, sad.

Do you ever think about a celebrity and want to write and offer them encouragement but don't?

This is a real bummer

It hurts, in a real way. I guess it's just how he died... understanding how he must have felt.

Dang.

That was so sad --- a lot of us could relate to what he was going thru.
