Friends and neighbors of Heath Ledger’s tell Life & Style they were shocked to hear about the sudden death of the actor, whom they had recently scene happy and healthy.

Julie McIntosh, a stylist who works at Devachan beauty salon next door to Heath’s building, and who was a friend of Heath’s, tells Life & Style, "This came as a shock to all of us. He seemed so happy. He had everything going for him."

“The last time I saw him was last week. He was by himself. He looked really good.”

“He was such a nice guy. Every time he walked by, he was always pleasant and always said hello. He'd always say, ‘Hey! What’s up?’

“I’d see him with his daughter, wheeling her in the stroller, all the time. I also saw him walking around a lot with his friend Elijah Wood. This is just all so shocking.”

Shortly after Heath’s body was carried out of the building in a black body bag around 6:30 p.m., Tomba Massa, the superintendent of the building where Heath lived, told Life & Style, “I rented the apartment to Heath four months ago. The last time I saw him was two months ago. I saw him often with his daughter. He was always really nice and friendly. I never had any problem with him with the rental.”
