Dalyce Curry, an actress known for her roles in Blues Brothers, Lady Sings the Blues, and The 10 Commandments, has tragically passed away at the age of 95.
Her remains were discovered after her home in Altadena was destroyed in a wildfire, according to TMZ.
The devastating incident occurred as the Eaton Fire ravaged areas east of Los Angeles, engulfing homes and prompting widespread evacuations in Altadena and Pasadena.
Curry’s granddaughter confirmed her passing in a heartfelt Facebook post.
She shared that she had last seen her grandmother on Tuesday, January 7, after dropping her off at her Altadena residence.
Later that day, the wildfire erupted, causing chaos and destruction throughout the region.
When the granddaughter returned the following day to check on Dalyce Curry, she was unable to access the area due to police barricades.
An officer informed her that the property had been destroyed and directed her to a nearby civic center sheltering displaced residents.
After an exhaustive search yielded no sign of Curry, authorities confirmed on Sunday, January 12, that the beloved actress had perished inside her home during the fire.
Curry’s passing marks one of at least 24 fatalities linked to the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. Her contributions to the film industry and the memories she leaves behind will not be forgotten.
