A moment of silence is in order for Gary Coleman. This afternoon, the diminutive star of the ’70s-era sitcom Diff’rent Strokes reportedly passed away at the age of 42 from the effects of a brain hemorrhage he suffered earlier this week. Not only did Coleman provide endless laughs as Arnold Jackson to many of us growing up, but he was also one of us for a while, hanging his hat in Highlands Ranch and working at Caboose Hobbies not to far from here at 500 S. Broadway. Rest easy, brother.
