Heath Ledger - the grieving thread

[Peter John Shields]

I can't believe it

No words.

Godspeed, Heath. Thank you for Ennis--thank you for your art.

Ditto. And a wonderful memorial that will live on.
A great tribute, moremojo.
This is so sad and unexpected.
My heart goes out to everyone, especially those near to Heath, for this tragic loss.

The story on HuffingtonPost said that MK Olsen was not in NYC at the time.  It said there were sleeping pills strewn about his nude body.  He had an appointment for a massage, and that's when they found him.

[j.U.d.E.]

The housekeeper only found him 90mins ago and its already all over the news. His poor poor family, I hope they didn't find out via news crews or tv.

I was thinking the exact same thing!..........

SO F******* SAD!

I haven't been here in a long time but I came here to talk about this. I am absolutely distraught. My stomach hurts and I am in tears.

This is very bad, friends.

yes........ very bad, very sad, very everything.

They just said the part about Mary Kate Olsen's apartment was a misreport. From what I am hearing, he passed in his Manhattan apartment.

Looks like it was his house but owned by Mary Kate - so I guess she rented it to him?

(is it okay to say that I really really really hope it was something like a spontaneous heart attack or stroke? purely accidental and unpreventable)

(I have to go back to work now... hopefully well, hopefully something...)
