What I have noticed since Heath's passing is that I no long feel that way. With the passingof the actor that played his character, it feels like Ennis Del Mar is gone too.

I'd thought that if nothing changes in Ennis' life from what we see at the end of both the ss and the movie, he'd probably have passed on by the year 2008. Even at the end of the basic plot, when he's only 40, this is someone who's put a lot of stress on his body and probably neglected his health.

What a brilliant and lovely sentiment! I have never thought of that before and I love it!
