I hadn't heard that news either, thanks Bry. How sad. I wonder what made him get to that point? That's really horrible.

i wonder just who did know about this death. after i posted this here, i looked on imdb.com to see if there was any other details. usually, i see they are up on the game when someone dies or something. but not this time. no mention of it anywhere. i would send it to them had i figured out how to.

This is terrible. I didn't know anything about it. He has been on my mind for several weeks.

I wonder why nothing came up on Yahoo or google alerts for the past week???

I think he was very talented - I just watched him in Hocus Pocus with Bette Midler. He was very funny on Saturday Night Live as well as in Moonlighting.

He WAS Richard Addison.

nice read.
sounds like he wasn't afraid to do new things.

CyBr · 10-15-2005, 10:59 AM

So sad to hear! Despite all the other things he did, he'll always be Richie to me.

I was very shocked to read this and I'm sad for his family.

Very very sad news... i have no words.

Yikes! This is getting stranger and stranger. Most people don't slice their own throat in order to commit suicide, do they? He goes out into a field and supposedly does this. This is just awful.
Was he ill? on meds? depressed? on drugs?
Are they sure it was a suicide?

Does anyone know how old his son was?
