Kind Words For Gary Coleman

A Nice Change of Pace From All The Rumors and Drama

The nice folks at bigdownload.com remember the positive things about Gary Coleman. A refreshing thing to read in a time where our good friend's passing has become an opportunity for rumors, scandal and b.s. drama.

"There's some very sad news to report today as actor Gary Coleman has died at the age of 42. News reports state that Coleman, best known for his role of Arnold Jackson in the 80's TV sitcom Diff'rent Strokes, died after suffering a intracranial hemorrhage on Wednesday after falling in his home at Santaquin, Utah.

Coleman is perhaps best known to gamers for his role playing himself in Running With Scissors' controversial 2003 first person shooter Postal 2. In the game Coleman is signing autographs and can either be peaceful to the player or can be threatening if the player chooses to attack Coleman in the game.

The official Postal web site has already posted a tribute to Coleman, saying, "We had a lot fun times together! You were an awesome dude with a great sense of humor! Rest in peace Gary, we love you and we will remember you always. You will be greatly missed little Buddy." Coleman also performed as the voice of Kenny Falmouth in LucasArts' adventure game The Curse of Monkey Island."
