That's a real shame. And from a Brain Hemorrhage. That is really a "diff'rent stroke". Sorry, bad taste, I know.

Diff'rent Folks topic

The story did not mention if Coleman had children, but it seems unlikely. Not easy being a Hollywood child star. RIP

How, sad Gary Coleman was a brilliant child actor. Different Strokes was a great show. Gary had lot of health problems all his life. He had crappy parents who stoled the millions he made as a child actor. R.I.P. Gary Coleman.

i believe he is in heaven now. and after his recuperation up there, he will have a life review and look back upon his most recent lifetime with a mixture of bemusement and admiration that he did the best he could do.

He wasn't really a "child" actor, was he?

He could play child parts when he was old enough to vote because there was something wrong with his body.

Still, I am sad that he died at an early age.

Considering he was on "Diff'rent Strokes" as a kid, yeah he was.

Shame to start out with such a promising life, then end up a security guard.
