F*ck this! We literally have lost Kevin Conroy (BATMAN) and Jason David Frank (Green Ranger) in a two-week span! Two of my childhood heroes are now dead.

According to representatives he committed suicide. ☹️ Dang what a way to go. My condolences to his family.

Trini

She went to the very same university that I myself did decades later:

And she died shortly before 9/11.

 

[Husky_Khan]

Only 49 years old.



Tragic passing. He had four kids and was going through a rough time in his life. One of his stepdaughters had also passed away in the previous year. He was still an icon not just for nostalgia but interacted a lot with the fandom and martial arts communities. People were saying how they had just seen him at conventions just last month.

Also never forget... Seven years ago he battled Ryu from Street Fighter.

Machiko Soga (1938-2006), Robert L. Manahan (1956-2000) and Richard Genelle (1961-2008) were also part of the cast.

That's five cast members who died unless there's more that I left out.

I believe they buried her on September 10, 2001.

His family must be devastated. I wish he had gotten the help he clearly needed before it came to this.

Funny Anecdote Featuring Amy Jo Johnson, the Pink Ranger.

I doubt I would ever mention to any kind of celebrity that I had a childhood crush on them. Why would anyone ever do that?

Damn shame that he didn't get immediate help before things escalated to this tragic point

 

[Stargazer]

Sad to see this. Pretty much a 90s icon.

I doubt I would ever mention to any kind of celebrity that I had a childhood crush on them. Why would anyone ever do that?

I mean... It kind of goes without saying though. Did any (straight) boy who grew up watching MMPR not have a crush on the Pink Ranger?
