Others have said it much better than I but what I can say is that I don't have the same reaction others have had, largely in part because Heath is not my type physically even though I did see him play a GAY man in a movie.
Yes, he was 28, but e celeb and a famous one at that, so what? In the end, he's just as human as you and I and it does us no good to elevate him to a plane higher than ourselves so on that front, I don't have any empathy, but as a simple human being, I can empathize as he's now another person who's gone at a very, young age and has not had the chance to mature and grow into middle age etc like so many of us.
