That's sad news.  I've watched a few episodes of "Pitchmen," and from what I can tell, his son seems like a really nice person.  Hope he, and the rest of the family, find some peace and hang in there.

Sucks.

Luggage hit him in the head on his airplane landing.  And I think he died of a concussion in the middle of the night.  Unreal.
