My late wife used to run one of his galleries.  I still have a few big paintings and some original signatures.........He had fans and foes, but its never good to speak ill of the dead.  There was quite a following for his work at one point. He was  young man.

I used to own three gift shops and sold many of his paintings.

Wow! What a loss! And at fifty-four is way too soon.

He was truly a talented man.

 My mom was a big fan of his. She has been gone for ten years now. Thomas Kinkade must have been real young when he started. He was very talented....
