News Actor Gary Coleman Dies of Brain Hemorrhage
Posted by Brianne "the intern" Turner on Fri, May 28, 2010 at 12:12 PM
This morning it was announced that 42-year-old actor Gary Coleman has died after falling into a coma and being placed on life support. This news follows the discovery of a hemorrhage to Coleman's brain that was found when the actor had fallen ill and been taken to a hospital near his home in Utah on Wednesday.
Though I have never seen an episode of Diff'rent Strokes, I have seen the news and have heard of Willis; like Coleman's character, I also have never known what he was "talkin' 'bout."
RIP, Gary Coleman. You were a firecracker, but you'll be missed.
