Well that sucks.

That's awful!

[USMCJG]

That's terrible. She was great as the voice of Luanne Platter on King of the Hill.

I have no clue who she is, but I hope she is at peace.

Why am I suddenly thinking about Len Bias?

Hope I am wrong, but that's what I am thinking. Sad either way.

Never heard of her. I figure it shows I don't watch much TV.

My first thought was Heath Ledger. This is going to turn into a media circus. And I'm sure drugs will be involved.

Damn shame though. Funny, the only thing she's done I'm familiar with was Luanne, but she was great at that. RIP.

She was a beautiful woman and great actress. As a huge KOTH fan this is very sad. 32 is way too young to die.

[DWARREN123]

Rumor is it was drug related. Make some money, get a little fame, do drugs and die young.

Sorry for folks like this!

Sad to say a lot of this stuff seems to be drug related. I remember seeing her a couple years back and she looked awful thin. Like druggy thin. Really sad. You would think we would have learned from the 60's, 70's, 80's...... Really sad.

Didn't know who she was until this post. She was too young at 32 to go.

[trblmkr13]

She was a good actress I was sad to read about her passing

My 37-year old step-sister died a month or so ago of cardiac arrest. She was not a drug user, and there was no obvious cause for this to happen to her.

There's no call for your assumption. At least wait for the autopsy before you spread those rumors.
