I’m right here, bro.”

Blake Heron
Child actor, Disney kid, smack addict.
January 11, 1982 – September 8, 2017.
Aged 35 years.

Most recognized for: In 1996, he played lead character Marty Preston in the sappy boy-and-his-dog flick “Shiloh.” He was also in Disney’s “Tom & Huck,” fought alongside Mel Gibson in “We Were Soldiers,” and recently appeared in a documentary called “A Thousand Junkies.” Take a wild guess what he was doing in that one… and how it got him here.
