Angus Cloud is being remembered for his life out of the highlight.
Two months after he died of an accidental overdose at age 25, the actor’s family members are sharing their most precious memories of him growing up in Oakland, Calif.
Years before he played the drug dealer Fezco on the HBO show Euphoria, Cloud—real name Conor Angus Cloud Hickey—was a teen within the East Bay working at Whole Foods and collecting Powerpuff Girls motion figures, based on his friends who spoke to People in an article published Oct. 6.
His childhood pal Ibrahim Dioum told the outlet, “Conor wasn’t afraid of anything,” while one other friend Tre Sorensen noted, “He was just fearless, man.”
“Conor could be just standing within the projects, and it was really scary, but he was hella completely happy. His bed was on the ground with this tiny little window next to it,” Dioum said. “He would put his juice boxes outside the window within the snow and later grab the juice when it was cold and drink it. It was so hilarious and funky. That was just him.”
