Sending love and prayers to Lance Gross today.
The actor revealed on Instagram that he very recently lost his father, posting a touching tribute to his dad that nearly brought us to tears.

"Heroes don't die, they live Forever," his note began. "Today is has tough every since that call. But now I can feel you around me. U were always my Hero Pop. Not just a Father but someone I always wanted to be. I hope you're up there dancing, singing and talking away. Heaven got a real one today. Peaceful resting old man. My love is forever..."

Our condolences go out to Lance and his entire family.
