RIP Luke Perry formerly Beverly Hills 90210
I just read Luke Perry just died after suffering a massive stroke last week. He was only 52. :weep:
I grew up watching Luke Perry on Beverly Hills 90210 playing bad boy Dylan McKay. He was my favorite. I had all the 90210 merchandise back in the 90s. I think I still have a pencil and sweatshirt somewhere at home.
He was great in 8 Seconds as the late rodeo legend Lane Frost and starred in Buffy The Vampire Slayer (the movie not the show).
RIP Luke. Wow!! He was only 52. I still can't believe he had a stroke soo young, but it looks like you can have a stroke at any age.

So sad!! I thought for sure he would recover, with him being so young.

I assumed he would recover, too, although perhaps with some after effects. I was so shocked to see he had died. I watched Beverly Hills 90210 while I was in high school and even though he was older, he was playing someone not much older than I was. So so sad!!!

I thought he would recover too. Lots of people have come back from a massive stroke.
52 is soo young to have a stroke.
RIP Luke. He will be missed. He was part of my childhood.

I was shocked and sad to hear of his passing. RIP.

So sad. 52 is far too young.

I did not know Luke Perry was from Ohio. There was a nice piece on the local news yesterday with interviews of those who went to school with him. I can't find that one, but here's one from the Columbus station:

The father of Sherrod Brown, one of Ohio's US Senators (who may or may not be running for President), was the doctor who delivered Luke Perry.
From what I've been reading these past couple of days, the man was sincere and cared very much for his family. My heart goes out to them.

:-( Didn't even know that he'd had a stroke. That's the UK for you. There'll be a mass shooting in Las Vegas (which interestingly the BBC thinks is in California) and our news will be about some BBC show, a leak in Bake Off. Unbelievable.
Used to love BH90210. Can only repeat what the rest of you have said. Sad to lose someone so young.

So sad to hear. Although I never watched 90210, I have seen 8 Seconds, awesome movie. He did a great job in it, his resemblance to Lane Frost was so real, Lane was such a friendly, nice, polite guy and his story was tragic ending as well, Luke played him very well.
