feeling sad and old man
This breaks my heart.๐ข
So maybe she really was a victim of Diddy and his friends…..
Because people with severe traumas always die young from every illnesses.
Because trauma makes you sick in every ways.
Poor girl. I'm so sad.๐ข
Rip to her
Assuming she managed her money correctly she should have had some cash. Even the wealthy can't get health insurance.
Hollywood doesn't have a health plan I guess.
I grew up watching LILO and Stitch when I was a kid!

"reached out for comments"… Comments about what? What is there to comment about.
Omg that was her ๐
REST IN PEACE, DAVEIGH CHASE!!!! SHE WAS AMAZING AS LILO IN BOTH LILO AND STICH THE MOVIE AND THE SERIES

Just so sad and very heartbreaking! Lilo & Stitch has literally been apart of my childhood forever! RIP Daveigh Chase, you'll will always be our Lilo forever ๐๐ข๐๐๐๐
I feel so sorry for her. May she rest peacefully. ๐ข
Aww so sad ๐
That is way too young to die. Daveigh Chase must have had the more serious version, either Fungal meningitis or carcinomatous meningitis to have been killed. My prayers go out to anyone who was a friend or family. Also, hope she is at peace, what an unimaginable loss.
A young life ending tragically too soon! Deepest condolences to her family and those who loved her. May her memory be a blessing and bring peace and comfort to her loved ones! ๐
Oliver Tree only 32 died recently. Deaths usually come in 3s. Who is the next young person to pass?๐ข
Omg ๐ฑ oh my goodness RIP ๐ข๐ญ
I know she was sick but without knowing what happened I thought to my selfโฆ. not another Diddy victim gone too soon.
Rest in peace. Daveigh Chase a.k.a the voice of Lilo from Lilo and Stitch.๐ข

I know people remember her as Lilo, but me, sure always be remembered for Chihiro in Spirited Away.
I'm going to miss her so much
Her passing away yesterday at age 35 from the disease that made her leave a lasting legacy as the voice Lilo from the movie that'll forever be known as one of the most beautiful characters in Disney history, RIP to this legend who we loved as fans watching over the years of her acting career because we'll miss her very much and remember her life as a child star for Hollywood also she's in heaven not suffering anymore and now in peace ๐ ๐
This is very shocking! She was only a couple of years older than me. RIP ๐
COVID Shot victim
๐ข๐ heartbreaking ๐๐ I always remember her from The Ring as Samara, hearing her say 7 days, that creepy long hair๐ , hate to hear she had health issues, 35 yrs old, so young, remind me of Michelle Trachtenberg who passed away last year at 39, another child star gone, Rest In Peace ๐๐
Rest In Peace, Daveigh Chase. Thank you for being part of everyone's childhood.
Sad, like any passing of good people.
RIP she Angus scrimm,Anthony Perkins and wilford Brimley are in a horror movie heaven together ๐ข
๐น๐นRIP Daveigh Chase ๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฏ๏ธ๐๐
I really hope Disney dedicates the upcoming live action Lilo & Stitch sequel to her memory. I trust Chris Sanders to fix the sequel by making Jumba redeem himself and joins the Oโhana, add Captain Gantu (asks Terry Crews to play him) and Angel (maybe ask Emma Stone), add some more Elvisโ songs like Jailhouse Rock, Blue Suede Shoes, If I Can Dream, In The Ghetto, A Little Less Conversation, Unchained Melody, and a cover of Frank Sinatraโs My Way
Maybe give the sequel a 2hrs run-time if needed.
RIP Daveigh (the original voice actor of Lilo)
There must be a bug virus ๐ฆ or bacteria or lab created. I hope this dose not become the new pandemic.
