Only 66, too. And they think it was natural causes. Very sad. I liked him as an actor and he was a damn fine athlete too. RIP, Mr Smith.

I wish i knew who he were. Sad to see him go regardless.

Man. He will be missed. Yeah, I knew about his sports career, though I have to admit I know him most for "Police Academy". Good ol' Hightower. Rest in Peace, Bubba.

The name didn't ring a bell until I saw a picture; immediately recognised him as Hightower.

RIP Bubba :(
