'Breaking Bad' Actor Mike Batayeh Dead at 52: 'A Devastating Loss of a Huge Life'

Batayeh — who was best known for his role of Dennis Markowski, the man in charge of Gustavo’s laundromat in Breaking Bad — died on June 1, according to his obituary.

His family told TMZ that he died in his sleep at his Michigan home after suffering a heart attack. Batayeh's sister Diane said the actor had no history of heart problems and his death was very sudden.

“He will be greatly missed by those who loved him and his great ability to bring laughter and joy to so many," Batayeh's family said in a statement to the outlet.

His family also remembered him as someone who was "always passionate about helping youth in the community where he lived and grew up facing similar challenges," according to his obituary.
