Yikes! Dead at twenty-eight! My oldest son is just a year younger than that!

My favorite roles for Heath were as the eldest son in Mel Gibson's "The Patriot" and as William in "A Knight's Tale." He was a talented actor, but if it's true that he died of an overdose, it just goes to show that nobody's bulletproof.

What a waste.
