She portrayed schoolteacher Alice Garvey in 35 episodes of the hit NBC show.
“Hersha, who has always been an active and outgoing woman, is battling a tough medical condition – a brain tumor known as meningioma,” wrote Peverall. “This illness has robbed her of her strength, her memory, and sadly, her vibrant personality. She has become largely bedridden, and it is very difficult to see my Mom, who was once full of life and energy, now struggling with basic daily activities.
Hersha Parady, who starred as schoolteacher Alice Garvey on the hit NBC show “Little House on the Prairie,” died Wednesday at the age of 78.“From moving expenses to in-home nursing care, to medical equipment and more, the financial burden is significant,” continued Peverall. “And with a full-time job and three kids, providing her with the level of care she needs is difficult.
After the highly popular episode aired, some “Prairie” fans were convinced that Parady had used a doll as a means to smash a locked window. “So because they’d forgotten to ‘break away’ the windows, I was determined to get out whatever the cost,” joked the actress. “In spite of the impending doom it would bring, at least I went out with a roar and not a whimper!”
