Hollywood has said goodbye to a young star.
Former child actor Blake Garrett, best known for his role in 2006’s How to Eat Fried Worms, died on Feb. 8, his mother Carol Garrett confirmed to TMZ. He was 33.
She does not know Blake’s cause of death, telling the outlet the family is still awaiting the autopsy results from the medical examiner.
Blake—who had been living in Tulsa, Okla., for the past three years—went to the emergency room last week after experiencing intense pain, according to Carol. She said he was later diagnosed with shingles.
Carole added that Blake had been living happily in Tulsa after becoming sober in recent years.
Blake made his onscreen debut in 2004’s Barney & Friends special Barney’s Colorful World, Live!, a live show which he also toured with for 18 months. And what he remembered most about his international travels was the fact that children wanted to touch his hair, which was nearly white in color.
