Actress Heather Menzies Urich has died of brain cancer. She was 68 years old.
Menzies Urich played Louisa von Trapp in the classic 1965 movie, 'Sound Of Music' alongside six other "von Trapp children."( Hey, if you haven't seen the movie, go get it ☺ you're gonna love it).
She was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme about a month ago, and her health declined rapidly, her son Ryan Urich said.
He said his mother died Sunday, surrounded by loved ones at a family home in Canada.
The songs Menzies-Urich performed in the film include So Long Farewell and the Lonely Goatherd.
After her debut in The Sound of Music she appeared in many television films and programmes, including the TV series of Logan’s Run, TJ Hooker and The Bob Newhart Show.
She married actor Robert Urich in 1975 and the couple had three children. He died in 2002.
Rest In Peace.
