Hollywood star Dalyce Curry, who played an extra in Blues Brothers, found dead after her home was burned down amid LA fires.
The fires that are raging in LA have affected thousands of homes and businesses. Over 200,000 people have been evacuated.
According to reports, the number of people who lost their lives reached 24.
Curry’s body was found at around 6 p.m. local time on Sunday, January 12.
The news of her passing was confirmed by her granddaughter, Dalyce Kelley, who took to Facebook to share that her “beloved grandmother” has died in the fires.
“We had a great run. She impacted my life in so many ways. This loss is devastating.”
The family last saw the star who died in the LA fires on January, 7, around the time the blazes started.
Curry’s Altadena home was completely destroyed by the Eaton Fire.
When her granddaughter received a text message that her grandma’s home had lost power, she went to check up on Curry, but the home was already destroyed and her grandma was nowhere to be seen.
“I’m sorry your grandmother’s property is gone. It totally burned down,” an officer told her, according to KABC.
“Everything was gone except her blue Cadillac,” Kelley said.
The actress’ other granddaughter, Lorée Beamer-Wilkinson, also shared her heartbreak over her grandma’s tragic passing.
“With a heavy heart, I share that our search for Momma D has come to an end, as her remains were found in her home,” she wrote. “We are devastated, and it’s difficult to comprehend how her life came to this end.
“I feel so grateful for the love and opportunity to have known her, even if only for a short time. Momma D was an extraordinary woman who welcomed me and my children into her life with open arms.”
“She radiated positivity, showed grace, and lived as a shining example of strength, resilience, and kindness. Her story is one of breaking barriers, overcoming challenges, and spreading love wherever she went.”
She continued: “I miss her deeply and am working through the waves of regret—wishing I had called her more, shared more moments. But I know the best way to honor her is to keep her memory alive and cherish the beautiful moments we shared.”
