His family confirmed in a statement that the 19-year-old "took his own life" on Thursday morning.

Sawyer played Geoffrey Barone in the hit show, which also featured his twin brother Sullivan as Michael Barone and older sister Madylin as Ally Barone.

Should we care?

You guys are sick. Doesn't surprise me though.

Sad to hear.

We still watch everybody loves raymond. Great show.

Really liked Ray on Parenthood too (great show as well).

yup

A lot of people don't care about celebs, and that's fine. If you really don't care, then you probably won't even click. There's simply no excuse to go out of your way to be an asshole about it though. He was a real person with a real grieving family, which on its own should be enough to not act like a jackass.

Wow, I can't imagine what it would feel like to lose your twin... especially from suicide.

My parents and grandma loved that show! Very sad. 🙁 Never realized he was that old.

It feels horrible, but what you do with it is what matters the most.

Some let it drag them down....and some move on and enjoy rest of their life.

We had a suicide in our family....

What happens in life is irrelevant, what you do with it is what matters!

Saying zzzz isn't being an asshole.

It's saying, why are you making everything that revolves around this person (or their family) a public issue?

Hint: Think of the reasons he probably committed suicide... Public expectations... always following his life with little privacy... If anyone needs to care more about celebrities, it's people like yourself that can't shut up about them and let them live a normal life.

It wasn't zzz, I just put that in there because it was really offensive and didn't want to re-quote.

Hated the show, but that really sucks. Poor kid.

What do you mean like myself? I don't post about celebs, I was curious in this case because I used to watch the show... and then I see Elevenpog posted something so awful that I'm surprised he just got edited and not banned.

I'm not sure what you think I meant, but don't put words in my mouth and then trash me for something I didn't even do.

There's something weird about only one twin doing it. Like I half expected to read both of them did it.

Something to watch out for unfortunately.

if a monozygotic (i.e., genetically identical) twin attempted suicide, his/her co-twin has a 17.5-fold increased risk of having made an attempt as well.

Wow, I didn't know all three of those kids were related.

 

[tortillasoup]

I like the show, Patricia Heaton on that show reminds me of my milfy neighbor both in demeanor and looks.

 

[Krazy4Real]

wow... i watched the show, but can't remember him.

He's one of the twin babies (and later on, boys).
