He was great as Spartacus. I really hoped he would pull through.
Prayers with his wife and children.
I am crushed. I loved Spartacus so much and mostly because of him. I was really hoping he could go in remission again. I'm so sorry for his family.
anyone know what kind of non-hodgkins he had? b cell or t cell?
RIP. So very sad.
I am truly crushed. I had really hoped he would beat this and come back to the show. RIP Andy. God bless his wife & kids.
He was so wonderful as Spartacus: intense, dedicated, tough, passionate, determined.
Oh man, poor guy. :-(
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.
How sad. RIP. :-(
This is heartbreaking. Prayers for his wife and kids.
Absolutely devastating. Such a sad loss at such a young age. He is irreplaceable as Spartacus. RIP Andy.
So sad, RIP Andy. He was a great actor!
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
