I really enjoyed him on L&O.

How terribly sad. He was much too young to leave us.

Awww, two of my favorite L&O are now deceased. Rest in peace.

The original L&O is still my favorite show. I shall not turn this into a L&O thread...unless you all want to.

So sad.

I was just watching That Old Feeling yesterday.

Prayers to his friends and family.
