Yep, also Mannimarco(in ESO at minimum) and Tybalt Leftpaw in GW2. A toast for the King of Worms, and an apple for the best mentor.

Shocking. His directing career started with Spinal Tap and it ended with Spinal Tap.

Man! It's sad enough when someone dies of natural causes at a decent age. But when they die because of homicide...damn!

 

[Rhinox]

current reports say this was done by his son. Truly tragic.

 

[The Predaking]

Damn, that was a shock to see last night. Sad way to go. Thanks for all the great films and for being the Meathhead.

Yea, first report I saw suggested it was a robbery gone wrong, but something just didn't feel right about that, especially given that they were stabbed, not shot. It being a relative makes that make a bit more sense, assuming it's true.

And now Trump is trying to claim partial credit saying they were killed due to them having "Trump Derangement Syndrome"
