Actress Suzanne Somers, best known for her role as Chrissy Snow in Three’s Company, died at the age of 76 in California on October 15. The cause of death was determined after receiving the death certificate. According to the Los Angeles Times, Somers died of “breast cancer that had spread to the brain.” She has been battling breast cancer for over 23 years.
His death on October 16, a day before his 77th birthday, is a great sadness. The cause of death was determined by biopsy, no autopsy was performed, but additional information is provided on the death certificate. Hypertension (high blood pressure) and hydrocephalus (excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain) were noted to be the causes of the underlying condition.
High blood pressure, the Cleveland Clinic explains, can lead to complications such as heart attack and stroke. Hydrocephalus, on the other hand, puts harmful pressure on brain tissue. Somers had suffered from hydrocephalus for more than a year, and in July 2022, he underwent a procedure to remove excess fluid from his brain using an “intracerebral ventricular shunt,” according to his death certificate.
Surrounded by his family, Summers’ death was a profound moment for all who loved him. He was buried on October 18 at Desert Memorial Park in Cathedral City, California.
Suzanne Somers will always be remembered for her incredible talent and the joy she brought to audiences throughout her career in the entertainment industry. His legacy touches the hearts and inspires many.
