I knew that he was from Houston, but I never realized that he grew-up in the Garden Oaks/Oak Forest area which is just a few miles from where I lived. Hell, he might've came into the BK where I worked as a young teenager. His movies didn't do much for me (I need to watch The Outsiders, I loved the book), but he seemed to be a sincere, nice guy.
RIP.
