    Read an article a few months back about her selling off her belongings, preparing for death. Really sad.

    Will never forget her.

    She was only slightly older than me, back when the show first started she was young, fresh and of course I had a crush like many did - not especially beautiful but very cute...
    Recently, she knew she was going soon enough and that part sucks-
    I am so glad to have a family and be healthy - F cancer !

    Only 53.

    20 years ago that seemed so old and now it seems too young.

    Yeah, he and Leon Hale (RIP) were must reads back in the day. Shocked that when Hale died most on the board had no idea who he was.

    Spent a little time with her about 15 years ago in LA and she was extremely sweet and authentic, I was hoping she'd beat cancer in the long run, was really sad to hear about her passing....

    Wow!! I had such a crush on her (and J Garth) when she was on 90210, glad to hear your story after you hear all the bad press she got over the years

    She claimed her accountants missed a payment for Screen Actor's Guild insurance in 2014 and therefore had to wait a year for open season to get back in. That was a year when the cancer took off.

    (Not to D&D, but how screwed up is it that someone --much less a celebrity--with a history of cancer couldn't afford to see a doctor for a year until some arbitrary bureaucratic date rolled around? Things are better since then, but we still have too many people dealing with medical costs.)
