Playboy Chief Hugh Hefner Was a Generous, Family Man

London: Former Playboy playmate Donna D'Errico says the adult magazine's chief Hugh Hefner will be remembered as a kind and generous man.

The "Baywatch" star and Miss September 1995, said that Hefner's public persona only tells part of his story. She says behind the scenes he was a warm, caring man who treated Playboy models like family and still looked out for them years after they had appeared in the magazine, reports tmz.com.

D'Errico also expressed regret about a decision she made, due to which she missed seeing Hefner to say goodbye. Hefner died at his Los Angeles home in September. He was 91.
