3. I remember watching him on All my children

He looked so much like his father. But sadly hard drug abuse even at a young age leads to early deaths. I know about three people who were heavy cocaine users in the 70’s and 80’s and one died young and one had a stroke and the other a heart attack in their fifties.

4. R.I.P.

Saw "Lawford" and thought "Peter". Didn't really keep track of all the children of the Kennedys.

Condolences to the family.

11. Wow, that's young to die.

He resembled his father, for sure. The article says he had a prior addiction problem, but that he'd been clean for 3 decades or something. His father had a problem with drugs, too, I think. And alcohol.
