67. A sad day. I would like to clear a few things up. Lee Grivas was my classmate, neighbor, and co-worker from a small town in NY called Jeffersonville. He was a punk skate boarder and always over the top. He has been battling drugs since highschool. He at one point reformed and went straight edge and became a Vegan. I have not seen him since highschool. When we learned he was dating Christina Applegate we were very surprised to say the least. Lee lived hard and fast. I would like to send my condolences to Lee's family and Christina. Also to everyone that has comment to the effect of he had it coming, Drug addiction is a disease. I am sure he did not want to do drugs he had everything to live for. It may be hard to understand this if you are not afflected with this disease.

68. Hey. Just so everyone knows the real details. Lee was found dead most likely from heroin. Its a real shame. I knew Lee well from his younger days in South Jersey. He was a great kid and wasnt any different than most kids his age. I see some comments saying that he looks old and that has to be because of drugs? Dont you think that he might look a little older because of the months spent out on a fishing boat? I assure you that those guys are not laying out getting tans. It's hard work and that is the reason that he looked older. If all of you people that have nothing but bad things to say about drugs have nothing better to say than dont. We live in a drug culture, prescription or illegal, they are basically the same. He did die of illegal drugs most likely but it doesnt change the fact that he was dead. It wouldnt be any better if it were prescription or otherwise. We all just have to say prayers and realize that we lost another great person to something not of their will. Lee, Rest in Peace Bro. We are all gonna miss you.

P.S. You got to give my boy mad props for being a skater/fisherman and tagging Kelly Bundy. None of you naysaysers would even have the balls to approach a girl like that and he not only did it but lived the life. Lee, you keep on being you and we will see you on the other side!

69. They weren't actually dating at the time... they dated on and off but aren't dating now, so that title is somewhat untrue.

70. People please come on stop judging why this man is dead have some type of mercy and pity on his family and Christina would you? Whatever the reason self inflicted or not he is gone now nothing else can be done or said to change that so why gossip and why judge a man AFTER he is dead? Do you wish to be judged that way? Keep this up and you shall
