My daughter wanted to be an actress. She was in a little broadway shows in Atlanta, lessons, head shot. Went to Hollywood, sit on the Marilyn Monroe square in the walk of fame, picture at the foot of the HOLLYWOOD sign... Came home and gave up on it. Boy am I glad. I know that was her dream but for so many the dream turns out to be a nightmare. Hollywood is not a good influence.You can look back at Heath when he first started at 19 and watch as the years go by. You can see his whole dimeaner change in his interviews. His acting got better and better, but the rest of it destroyed him. He flat wore himself out with all the pressure that goes along with the dream.Sad. So sad. But again, Hollywood lifestyly takes another one.

But so sad for his beloved daughter. And a great loss to the entertainment industry. I miss him. I truly hope he was at peace with dying. But so sad for his beloved daughter.
