I really liked Billy Mays. He was so cheerful and clever, and he made me want to invent something. I am so saddened by his death, especially after so many famous people I had grown up watching have died this week. I was sad to see Ed McMahon go, but he had lived a long full life. And Farrah's passing did make me cry, but it was not entirely unexpected. Michael Jackson's death did shock me, but I have no comment about him.
But Billy Mays dying has hit me kind of hard. My whole family loved watching his show Pitchmen togther and he was truly one of a kind. I will miss you Billy Mays and your big bright smile and even bigger and brighter heart. He was not only a great pitchman, a hard worker, and a charming personality, but a genuinely nice guy. A rare combination these day. RIP Billy and I will one day be glad to meet you on God's golden shore.

Tampa police say Billy Mays, the television pitchman known for his boisterous hawking of products such as Orange Glo and OxiClean, has died. He was 50. Authorities say Mays was pronounced dead this morning after being found by his wife at home. There were no signs of a break-in, and investigators do not suspect foul play. The coroner's office expects to have an autopsy done by Monday afternoon.
