I find it very sad. I was just watching him yesterday on an old “Law & Order: SVU.” I assumed when there was no news after his stroke it was not a good sign.

Wasn’t he also in “Oz?”

And he was in another series some years back where a bunch of people in an office pooled their money to buy lottery tickets and hit it big, with the Luke Perry character and the others each receiving $20 million.

His face looks really worn out in recent photos.

Previous health problems?

Alcohol or drug problems?

Once a person hits 50, some will age very fast. My co-worker looks nothing like his security identification now and it was taken only 5 years ago.

Yes, I saw the Buffy-movie, and have seen some of the Riverdale episodes.

Many artists are lost due to drug addiction.
