DEANNA LUND – PANCREATIC CANCER

For those who loved watching popular shows from the ’60s, you will instantly recognize Deanna Lund. She was blessed with both good looks and exceptional talent, which made her one of the most sought-after supporting casts during her active years. What most of her fans didn’t know, she dropped out from getting her college degree and eventually married her high school sweetheart. She then went on and worked her way towards Hollywood.

Before she became a household name, however, Deanna starred in several minor roles that failed to put her name on the map. Fortunately, a big break came her way when she was cast in Irwin Allen’s Land of the Giants in 1968. She passed away at the age of 81, with her close friends and family announcing the news. According to their accounts, Lund died because of pancreatic cancer on June 22, 2018. The actress certainly left quite a lasting legacy.
