Sounds like a OD, but I dunno.

I bet it was drugs.

Wow , they say the 40's are tough on men, heart problems and such. I hope it wasn't drugs or booze.

LA has no heart. It's very superficial and uncaring.

every time I pop that Footloose soundtrack into the ol' 8-track player....it just won't be the same

the big question-will Sean pay to investigate the role that the Bush administration played in this death?

Columbo.

UR BAAAAD

WHAT A WASTE OF A HUMAN LIFE. i REALLY LOVED HIS MOVIES

what a waste ! I really enjoyed all his movies and thought he was a good actor.
My heart goes out to the family .

He was a talented man. The show didn't last very long, but I loved him in the Brotherhood of Poland, NH
