It is so

Edited: I changed the date I met him, 'cuz obviously I didn't meet him in 2004. I meant 1994. I also added another article confirming his suicide. The details hurt even more.

He committed suicide. And earlier they had said it could be 4-6 weeks until they got back all the tests.

I never got to "marry Jonathan Brandis and move to Fraggle Rock." <-- That's actually printed as my "future aspirations" in my 9th grade yearbook.

Side note for my own future reference: According to my scrapbook I met him on February 19, 1994. Lovely day that was.
