Veteran actress Dalyce Curry, known for her roles in iconic films like The Blues Brothers and The Ten Commandments, tragically perished in the devastating Eaton Fire that ravaged Altadena, California. The 95-year-old actress's remains were found in the ashes of her home, leaving her family and fans heartbroken.
Hollywood actress Dalyce Curry has died in the harrowing Los Angeles wildfires. The 95-year-old grandmother's remains were sadly located in her destroyed home in Altadena amid the devastating Eaton Fire. It was confirmed on Sunday (January 12) by the coroner that Dalyce's remains had been found. Dalyce - who was known as Momma D to her family - appeared in the likes of The Blues Brothers, The Ten Commandments and Lady Sings the Blues over the years.
Her granddaughter had dropped her off to her home at midnight on Tuesday after a long day of hospital appointments, and she left for the evening - but sadly it was confirmed the 95-year-old passed away, the Mirror reports. When she woke up in the morning, Kelley saw a text that the power had gone out in her grandmother's house and headed over to the Altadena area. Tragically, an officer then told her: 'I'm sorry your grandmother's property is gone. It totally burned down.' 'It was total devastation. Everything was gone except her blue Cadillac,' she recalled. However, it has now sadly been confirmed that her grandmother has died. On Sunday, when the search was still underway, Kelley told Eyewitness News she was 'still praying for a miracle'. She said: 'Honestly we don't feel very hopeful that she's still here with us.' She told KABC: 'Our souls are aching, our hearts are broken. She loved Altadena. There is no one who loved that city more than my grandmother. 'She said she had yet began to live, so I knew she would just be here beyond 100. She still wanted to date, she wanted to find a husband... They have to do better with the emergency system because there's a that was a very elderly kind of community. 'There's a lot of retirees there, and we can't just rely on the cellphone, because elderly people don't really do cellphones. They don't. That's not the only way we should notify people when there's evacuation orders.
