This poor man had a tough time after some what many 'thought' were good years in Hollywood. I'm beginning to think no one has any "good years" once "Hollywood spits them out"
I'll remember him and his troubled co stars like this, as opposed to the older and more angry and bitter kid who's main catchphrase "Whatchu Talkin' Bout Willis?" people still use today, including myself, who was about 13 when this show hit the big time.
Instead of the tragic show cast with the late and troubled Dana Plato, who sadly died in a motorhome outside of her fiancee's house , to then her own son, who also took his own life, he in 1999, on to Todd Bridges, who's burglary exploits are all well known and now finds himself as the only one of this cast even alive now I'm almost 99% positive..
It's almost as if the show had some sort of curse attached to it.

The Hollywood curse.
Rest in peace buddy, thanks for the laughs early on, and sorry for the pain.
Damn. 42. That's my age. How does one die so young? That sort of thing is always sad, no matter who it was who died.
