On Monday, Dr. Frank Ryan drove his car off a cliff in Malibu in a tragic accident that claimed his life.

More tragic, I feel, is that his death is being reported as follows:

“Dr. Frank Ryan Dead: Heidi Montag’s Plastic Surgeon Dies in a Car Crash at Age 50”

Despite everything this man has done for his entire life — despite the adventures he’s had, the people he’s touched, the good he’s done — he will forever be remembered as “Heidi Montag’s plastic surgeon”.

That’s the real tragedy.
