That's very sad. 😞

"Live fast, die young" (James Dean) seems to apply to the Rich and Famous quite often

or those quick to judge without reading the article

"the actor had been attending an event for his charity to raise money for people affected by Typhoon Haiyan, which hit the Philippines last month."

"The identity of the driver of the car is not known."

I only watched the first one Jo. I hate when tv show/movie writers think its a great idea to kill off then bring back to life some of the characters. Even if the storyline was remotely plausible. Hubs did enjoy the last one tho.

So, because he had been at a charity event, his driver would not have been driving too fast, perhaps a little dangerously? Please. Let's wait for the full story to come out, but my guess is they were putting the Porsche through its paces, maybe had a little too much to drink at the event.

The driver was Roger Rodas, longtime friend of Paul's.

Very sad for both families to lose them over Thanks Giving weekend, particularly for Pauls daughter who is only 15.
