STAR Trek actress Annie Wersching has died at age 45 after battling cancer.
Wersching was best known for her roles on 24, Bosch, and Timeless.
Wersching was diagnosed with cancer in 2020 but continued to act in prominent roles such as Star Trek: Picard and The Rookie.
Actor Stephen Full, Wersching’s husband, issued a statement confirming her death.
“There is a cavernous hole in the soul of this family today. But she left us the tools to fill it,” he wrote.
“She found wonder in the simplest moment. She didn’t require music to dance.
“She taught us not to wait for adventure to find you. ‘Go find it. It’s everywhere.’ And find it we shall.
“As I drove our boys, the true loves of her life, down the winding driveway and street, she would yell BYE! until we were out of earshot and into the world.
“I can still hear it ringing. Bye my Buddie. ‘I love you little family…’” he wrote.
Wersching’s other credits included voicing Tess in The Last Of Us video game, which has since been adapted into a TV series for HBO.
Wersching leaves behind three young boys, Freddie, Ozzie, and Archie.
A GoFundMe has been started to support her family.
