EMFB and I were both shocked and saddened by this news. 
She woke me up from a dead sleep shouting my name, and I couldnt believe it when she said it. 
I was like oh that 4-chan,  
Then she said it was on drudgereport. 
My heart sank and I felt kind of sick. 
Its like losing a friend in a way, because you always looked forward to seeing them and you grew up with them. 
He was a few years older than I am, but I really loved his acting, regardless of the movie. He was a fun figure I always looked forward to seeing.  
I can only pray for his Daughter to grow up happy and strong, I know what its like to lose your parent/s. 
I only hope that wherever his spirit is if you believe in that stuff, is happier than he was in his seemingly troubled life. 
I will always remember Heath Ledger.
