As tributes poured in for the beloved actress who campaigned for cancer research and wellness, her longtime pal, Yvette Nipar, wrote she would "miss" Olivia forever after the pair formed the most unlikely bond searching for McDermott when he disappeared nearly 20 years ago.
"My sweet friend--I will miss you forever," she wrote while using the hashtag Olivia Newton John Forever. Nipar shared a photo from the annual Olivia Newton-John Wellness Walk and Research Run in Melbourne, Australia, in 2019, which benefits the cancer center she founded in 2012.
