March 2022 Obituaries

Unread post by ~Z~ »

Farrah Forke, age 54, died of cancer. Was on my favorite sitcom, Wings. Didn't like her character at all, but still, she was part of Wings. Appears she had silicon implants at 21, which then ruptured a couple years later, and caused health complications. Wonder if her cancer was due, in part, to this.

I like Wings as well! One of the many classic sitcoms created by the same creators of Taxi, Cheers & Frasier.
