I found this article in my newspaper:
"Drug Overdose may have killed Roseanne star" by Sorelle Saidman
A drug overdose is likely behind the death of Glenn Quinn, who played Sarah's Chalke's husband Mark Healy on Roseanne and the half-demon Doyle on the first season of the series Angel. Quinn, 32, was found dead at a friend's home in North Hollywood last week. Police suspect a drug overdose and will keep the case open until toxicology tests are complete, the Los Angeles Times reports. "Glenn had struggled long to overcome addiction," a close friend told The Province. "Before his overdose, he was celebrating 50 days of sobriety." Quinn first appeared as Becky Conner's motorcycle-riding boyfriend in Roseanne's third season and was a full time cast member the final two years. The show aired from 1988 to 1997. The role of Becky was shared by both Vancouver native Chalke and Lecy Goranson, who originated the role. He made his movie debut in the John Travolta movie Shout in 1991, sharing on on-screen kiss with a then-unknown Gwyneth Palthrow. Until recently, Quinn was the co-owner of the popular Hollywood nightclub Goldfingers.
