Finally getting around to watching the last four seasons of Angel, and loving the Lorne character, but often saddened, knowing that he's no longer with us.

From Wikipedia...

Health complications and death

According to a 2005 interview, about a month after filming the last episode of Angel, Hallett suffered a dental infection which spread through the bloodstream to his heart, leading to a case of cardiomyopathy, for which he spent five days in the hospital. Although he recovered, his heart muscle and valves were weakened and he found himself easily fatigued afterward. He did not return to acting (except for a voice part in the animated film Geppetto's Secret), but pursued his music career and frequently appeared at media conventions for Buffy and Angel and for science fiction and fantasy in general.
Five years after first experiencing heart problems, and after at least three additional hospitalizations, Hallett died from congestive heart failure on March 29, 2009 at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles with his father by his bedside. He was 33 years old.

Quite the thread revival. I was wondering if this was the anniversary of his passing.

But yeah... Lorne really did win me over as the series went on.

Again, thanks Andy.

Still missed.
