The A&E family is mourning the death of reality television star Roy Garber. Roy, who became a fixture on A&E's "Shipping Wars," died Friday.

According to a report on TMZ, the "jack of all trades" died from an apparent heart attack. His long-time girlfriend says that he was rushed to a hospital in Texas after he suffered the heart attack, and died thereafter.

TMZ reports that Roy's family said he had a heart condition for a long time. Roy Garber was only 49-years-old.

Being a huge fan of this show, I can honestly say Roy was one of my favorites. His no-care attitude, and aggression seemed to distinguish his personality from the rest of the cast. He will be sadly missed.
