Heath Ledger, Gone Too Soon

It appears that Heath Ledger ’s death may have been an accident. I know the family always wants to believe the best when a relative dies, but we know nothing, and have nothing, to suggest that he didn’t die from an accidental overdose.

Academy Award nominee Heath Ledger, 28, has died of a possible drug overdose involving sleeping pills in New York, police have confirmed.

The actor was sick with pneumonia when he died, the TMZ.com website reports, saying it had been contacted by representatives of Ledger’s family, who said they’d been told by police that the actor’s death was accidental.

The representatives said the family was particularly distraught over media speculation that he may have taken his own life.

Too many good stars die young, whether through accidents or suicide, and this is yet another incident of someone dying before their time.

Rest In Peace, Heath.
