PRAY: Actress Patricia Heaton Posts Heartbreaking Message About Her Brother's Death"We had a very funny family. Laughs were very important to us," Michael Heaton said, explaining how laughs got the family through their mother's death when he was 14 and Patricia was 12. "Humor really ... helped us through it."

Patricia Heaton, who is mourning this tragic loss, shared footage of a "beautiful interview" from 2012 that local outlet WEWS-TV conducted with her brother, whom she called a "very excellent human being."
