Was she sick or was this a surprise? Cripes, man. She's not that much older than I.

It's been so long since I last watched Batteries Not Included that I had completely forgotten it.

That was back when Jessica Tandy was in every movie that came out, kind of like Clive Owen was in the mid-2000's.

If it's any consolation, all sorts of people are dying, not just the famous ones.

It turns out the cause of death was apparently alcohol-induced cirrhosis of the liver.
