Balelo first appeared on "Storage Wars" in August 2011. On his Facebook page, he had indicated he was "currently working on a new reality show of (his) own."
Since learning of Balelo's death, some "Storage Wars" stars have shared their thoughts about him on Twitter, including Darrell Sheets, also known to viewers as "The Gambler," and auctioneer Dan Dotson.
