God bless his family, makes me very sad.

It is sad. It seems we lost a lot of good ones this year.

I really appreciated his work. He actually was a pretty versatile actor; although his strength was definitely comedy, he played some great dramatic roles, too.

Patch Adams was an impressive movie. It was based on a true story about a doctor who related to his patients as human beings by making them smile through their pain. And I personally think we need more of that in today's world of so much tragedy.

I also enjoyed M&M back in the day. Of course, I was a little kid when it was originally on, but I wasn't too young to enjoy the antics of his character in the very show that made him a star!

He will be missed.

Yes, it shows us things aren't always as they appear. We really need to take a lesson from this and reach out to one another. He was such a good man, God bless his soul.

How right you are! It's a good lesson for all of us to learn.

It seems he did support some good causes. I saw some commercials in which he was a spokesman for St. Jude's Hospital.

Yes it's a shame goes to show money doesn't buy happiness. Depression hits anyone. ( well I really have no idea of the cause )
