    That is too bad. He was an under rated actor. He did his job well, in almost everything I've seen him in.

    RIP one of my favorite scenes was in the fast times sequel when he hands his girlfriend the engagement ring box trying to make up with her and she's all happy until she opens it and finds it empty. Classic!!
