Very sad, I really enjoyed his acting.

Pretty young death....I wonder if he had a enlarged heart due to his size?

What a shock. He was one of those actors I used to get psyched to see on screen. Seemed like he was probably a nice guy.

One never knows. Death of the young is always more sad, for some reason. It's the loss of potential and vitality, which we all cling to, that brings us to reflect. Rest in peace, Michael.
