RIP Luke Perry

[sprite75]

Luke Perry has passed away.

Luke Perry, who played the beloved Dylan McKay on the hit coming-of-age series "Beverly Hills 90210," has died.

Perry, 52, died Monday after suffering a massive stroke, his publicist Arnold Robinson told CNN.

"He was surrounded by his children Jack and Sophie, fiancé Wendy Madison Bauer, ex-wife Minnie Sharp, mother Ann Bennett, step-father Steve Bennett, brother Tom Perry, sister Amy Coder, and other close family and friends. The family appreciates the outpouring of support and prayers that have been extended to Luke from around the world, and respectfully request privacy in this time of great mourning. No further details will be released at this time," a statement from Robinson read.

I was just thinking about him the other day for some reason. I was going on some sort of mental tangent about people named "Luke" (For some reason).
I've never seen 90210 and don't intend to, I just heard about him on a Family Guy skit when I was in high school. I kinda just forgot he existed for a while.
Now he's dead. Weird timing.

Still, I don't know much about him as a person but I feel bad for his family.

He was only 52.  Sad news. Good night, LUKE.

I never had much use for 90210 but man, I remember how the gals I hung out with in high school/college would swoooon for that dude whenever he came on TV.

His dry, deadpan delivery was probably the best thing about the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie. (Well, aside from Kristy Swanson's spandex-clad ass...)

He also had a voice cameo in a classic "Simpsons" episode, where we learned that he was Krusty the Klown's "worthless half-brother!"

R.I.P. sir.
