Celebrity death that’s affected you the most ? (lemmy.world)

For me it was Cheater Bennington. Linkin Park music helped me through some hard times and I know some of the more impactful lyrics came from him and what he experienced.

Knowing he couldn’t take it anymore definitely hit Me hard particularly as someone I looked up to from young age …

Who was yours ?

Just researched B99 and he had so many great moments, and he was absolutely perfect in the role. I read this thread thinking on each name "yeah him, felt sad about them". Andre here though, yeah that hurts deep

Put the gun and the yo-yo down.

You're just writing case over and over.

Also the Florida episode.

"Why is no one having a good time? I specifically requested it."

So many great lines, and his delivery was perfect.
