JJ Abrams the director of the new Star Trek movie coming out in May heard that in the speech he mentioned being a big Star Trek fan so JJ had him fly out to LA and gave him a bit part with a line or two as a crew member of the USS Enterprise in Star Trek. It is a shame he did not live to see himself onscreen.
It was so sad because he was so young, handsome and vibrant. Had a beautiful wife and kids and seemed to be one of those people who was enjoying life to the fullest.
The part of his speech I saw he did not mention religion. I sure hope he had given his life to Christ.

He grew up Presbyterian, but there's not much in his book that is "spiritual". He has a lot of good moral lessons in the book, but nothing about a walk with God. Like you, I hope that he found that before he died.
I haven't seen any of it on youtube, but I will look.
