Quoted from Wikipedia

“Hedberg was known to be a drug user, referring to it in some of his jokes (“I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too”). He was arrested in Austin, Texas, in May 2003 for possession of heroin.[1] On March 30, 2005, he was found dead in a hotel room in Livingston, New Jersey.[9] Hedberg was born with a heart defect for which he received extensive treatment as a child.[1][10] It was initially speculated that this condition may have played a part in his death. The New Jersey medical examiner’s office reported “multiple drug toxicity”, in the form of a cocaine and heroin “speedball”, as the official cause of death.[1] His funeral was held at St. Ambrose of Woodbury Church in Minnesota.”
