Overview
- He died Saturday at St. John’s Hospital in Santa Monica after septic shock the night before, according to a GoFundMe update from family friend Hilarie Steele.
- He had been treated since early 2025 for alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive soft‑tissue cancer, after a tumor behind his left eye cost him his vision.
- The cancer later reached his spine, causing seizures and a steep decline that left him bedridden by February, as updates detailed.
- The Los Angeles comedy community organized an August benefit at the Largo, and a GoFundMe that has surpassed its original goal now seeks help for memorial costs and ongoing support for his wife, Christina, and their 5‑year‑old daughter, Everest.
- He was a fixture of the LA comedy scene and a SAG‑AFTRA performer with TV credits including Blue Bloods, Dexter, Everybody Hates Chris, The Young and the Restless, and Pretty Little Liars, with a memorial reported for April 17 at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
