Hmmm. Interesting that his 'estranged' wife made the comment a few weeks ago that he wasn't quite as sick as he's been portraying.

Guess he was...

So sad. RIP. And here his soon to be ex wife was going on about how he's not dying. She should be ashamed of herself.

Poor guy. Seems like many celebrities have been dying lately. Dennis deserved more credit though, he was such a good actor. When he was getting his star right away you could tell his days were numbered. Don't you f*cking look at me!
