"Sylvester Stallone is in mourning.\r\nDays after his son Sage was found dead at age 36, the 66-year-old superstar released a new statement to TMZ -- asking for privacy and respect as he grieves the loss of his eldest child, whose mother is his first wife Sasha Czak.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;When a parent loses a child there is no greater pain,&amp;quot; the Rocky star says of Sage, a filmmaker and actor. &amp;quot;Therefore I am imploring people to respect my talented son&amp;apos;s memory and feel compassion for his loving mother Sasha.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n\r\nHe adds: &amp;quot;This agonizing loss will be felt for the rest of our lives. &amp;quot;Sage was our first child and the center of our universe and I am humbly begging for all to have my son&amp;apos;s memory and soul left in peace.&amp;quot;\r\nSimilarly, Sage&amp;apos;s attorney and friend George Braunstein suggested that speculation that his late friend abused prescription drugs or was unhappy before he died is off the mark.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;[He] was in good health, great spirits,&amp;quot; Braunstein told NBC Los Angeles. He was thinking of getting married, working on a lot of film projects.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
