Melissa Gilbert remembers Michael Landon on 31st anniversary of his death
CNN
"Little House on the Prairie" star Melissa Gilbert is remembering her late co-star Michael Landon, more than three decades after he died of pancreatic cancer at age 54.
"Today is the 31st anniversary of the death of one of the most influential people in my life and I am so, so sad," Gilbert wrote in an essay for PanCAN, a charity that funds those affected by the disease.
She continued: "You would think that I would have been feeling this kind of sadness last year, on the 30th anniversary. After all, 30 seems like more of a landmark number than 31. Yet here I am, feeling the grief and loss deeply today. Grief and loss don't care about landmark numbers. In my experience they creep up and hit you when you least expect it."
