Years ago I bought a book on cassette - an abridged version of Jurassic Park - read
by John Heard. I started using it to help me fall asleep. I'd put the cassette on and
listen to it, forcing myself back to it if my mind started to race. I must have done that
a thousand times over the years.

Because of that, I'd always notice whenever John Heard was in a movie or TV show.
It was usually a small part - a character part.

Rest in peace, Mr. Heard.
