“Little House on the Prairie” actor Hersha Parady has tragically died at the age of 78. Parady’s son, Jonathan Peverall, confirmed the actor’s death to The Hollywood Reporter and revealed she passed away in his Virginia home.
A month before her death, Peverall had set up a GoFundMe Page in honor of the actor, who was suffering from a brain tumor. He wrote, “Hersha, who has always been an active and outgoing woman, is battling a tough medical condition — a brain tumor known as meningioma. This illness has robbed her of her strength, her memory, and sadly, her vibrant personality.” According to the Mayo Clinic, meningioma “arises from the meninges — the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord.” Although there are no specific symptoms tied to the disease, it truly affected Parady.
Peverall explained on the GoFundMe page how the disease had taken a toll on his mother. He shared, “She has become largely bedridden, and it is very difficult to see my Mom, who was once full of life and energy, now struggling with basic daily activities.” The actor’s only son was hoping to raise funds to get the medical support she needed. Unfortunately, the “Courage” star passed away not long after he set up the page. Still, Parady was loved by many and will forever be remembered by those closest to her and her adoring fans.
