‘M*A*S*H’ actress Gwen Farrell dead at 93
Gwen Farrell, best known for her role on the hit series “M*A*S*H,” has died. She was 93 years old.
Gwen’s son, Keith Farrell, revealed the actress died Thursday in Los Angeles, reports TMZ.
Her cause of death remains unknown at this time.
A GoFundMe to assist with funeral and memorial expenses was created.
“Gwen was so much more to her family. She was a grandmother, a guiding light, and a steady source of love and wisdom. She had a way of making those around her feel supported, understood, and cared for without needing recognition,” Gwen’s family wrote in the post.
“Her passing leaves a deep void in our hearts, one that cannot be filled. We will miss her voice, her strength, and the quiet comfort she brought into our lives. While we are heartbroken, we are also incredibly grateful for the life she lived and the legacy she leaves behind.”
As of the timing of this report, the fundraiser has already received $110 of its $13,000 goal.
The daughter of Fatburger founder, Lovie Yancey, Gwen starred in a recurring role on the popular war comedy series, which ran from 1972 to 1983.
She appeared in 26 episodes of the show throughout its run, where she portrayed several different nurses.
Her additional credits include “Starsky and Hutch” and “Billy Jack Goes to Washington.”
In 1980, Gwen transitioned to a career in boxing as a referee in California where she went on to become a trailblazer in a sport where not many women were found. She also made history as the first woman to referee a World Title fight.
“With confidence, fairness, and unwavering composure, she earned the respect of fighters, trainers, and fans alike. She didn’t just do the job; she broke barriers and proved that strength comes in many forms,” her family wrote of her career in the GoFundMe post.
