Kevin Cordasco (August 5, 1996 - March 11, 2013) was a fan of Breaking Bad who Vince Gilligan credits with giving him the idea for reintroducing Gretchen and Elliott Schwartz into the conclusion of the series. Kevin died at age 16 after a six-year battle with neuroblastoma. During his final months, several of the cast and crew visited Kevin in hospital. Vince Gilligan gave him the prop used for Tortuga's severed head as a gift.
