Johnny Cash died as well at the age of 71, CNN's website only says he was recently released from a hospital but the CNN news channel on TV just said he died from diabetes problems.

It's a shame John Ritter died I have a lot of respect for him. He donated his time to do the voice of "Clifford, The Big Red Dog" on PBS for children.
He was a good actor as well.
