  8. This is truly sad. I was really hoping he will make it through.

    A truly beautiful man, and always had a crush on his graceful skull and neck... There was a fragility in there that definitely made him different from the other 'boorish' Spartacus. Too young to die, RIP.

    So sad :(

    I lost a friend a few years ago to the same cancer who was a mother to three young kids.

    He was a beautiful man, and by the statement from his wife, very loved.

    RIP
