Sadly, Gary Coleman, the star of the Diff'rent Strokes television show that ran for 8 seasons in the late 70's and early 80's, passed away today at the age of 42. According to CNN.com he died of a brain hemmorhage at a hospital in Provo, Utah.

He is also sadly another example of a child star who comes to hit bottom. He apparently discovered his adoptive parents had spent most of his earnings he made while starring in Diff'rent Strokes...
