Her fleeting fame did her no favors.

She grew up right in front of our eyes.

I didn't know she was actually 15 when she started on Happy Days (when I first noticed her) til I read her info on Wikipedia. I know she had plenty of work before becoming Joanie Cunningham

Update:

Autopsy: 'Happy Days' actress Erin Moran likely died of cancer

I know there were no signs of drugs in Erin's system. However, I was just in the area (Corydon, IN) and was told by the locals that the area has a raging and deep Meth and various related drugs problem. Epidemic really.
Sad about Erin, as I remember watching her shows as a kid.

Had crush on her back in the day. RIP Erin.

Perhaps at the age of 6 or 7 she had a marvelous part in a Gunsmoke episode that appears occasionally in reruns on
TVLand.
