Only 39, that's pretty sad. He was about the only good character on that show most of the time.

When someone so physically fit like him dies from a heart it makes me afraid.

Lafayette.

That sucks.

Reminds me of Andy Hallett (Lorne from Angel) also dying from a heart condition in his thirties (but his actually started as a dental infection.)

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Such a shame. So young and such a talent. He was the main reason I watched True Blood.

 

[CaptainWacky]

He had an alcohol problem that led to his death (his family shared the details to help others with addiction problems.)
