I had to google to see who he was, I had forgotten his real name.

Loved him in the Green Mile, it's sad he died so young.

Was the heart attack in July on the news? Never heard it , especially since he'd been in hospital ever since.

I'd love to have his voice, but it might sound strange coming from a small pasty white Irish guy.
