James Van Der Beek shares condolences on Billy Bob

Billy Bob Varsity Blues

Ron Lester, the man behind the lovable character “Billy Bob” in “Varsity Blues,” died on Friday of liver and kidney failure. He was 45.

Lester was best known for his acting job in Varsity Blues, so as fans of the movie, we feel an obligation to bring you the sentiments shared about him by his co-star, James Van Der Beek (aka Mox), on Twitter Saturday:

Lester weighed over 500 pounds at his peak weight but lost nearly 350 pounds after bypass surgery. He was hospitalized in November due to these issues and was in hospice care prior to his death.
