My Way News - 'Porky's' actor Knight commits suicide in Hawaii

A family statement Friday said the actor chose to end his life after a painful bout with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which was in stage 4. He underwent radiation treatments that left him in "physical and emotional pain," and had a bone marrow transplant in 2003.

"He was tired of the pain and after much contemplation, chose to end his life in a beautiful and a serene place," the statement said. "His family and friends are devastated."

Ah. Well. I am in favor of being able to end on my own terms, so I respect his decision.

So sad, but I am glad his pain is over.
 
Ain't no one else's business. It is not for us to 'approve' or 'disapprove'.
 
I can't imagine being in that much pain

I respect his decision
 
I'm sure he took into account whether a bunch of anonymous idiots on a message board will 'respect' him or not.

I'm sure he could appreciate any support he could get. Even from you
