M*A*S*H actress Judy Farrell’s ‘generosity of spirit’ remembered following death

M*A*S*H actress Judy Farrell has been remembered as a “beautiful woman, a talented actress and a wonderful writer” following her death.

The US actress died on Sunday at the age of 84 after suffering a stroke, her former husband Mike Farrell confirmed to the PA news agency. She was best known for her role as Nurse Able on the popular US war-comedy-drama, which aired from 1972 to 1983. The actress starred in the show alongside Mike Farrell, who played BJ Hunnicutt, and praised her “warmth, intelligence and loving generosity of spirit”.

In a statement shared with PA, he said: “Judy is a beautiful woman, a talented actress and a wonderful writer. A jock, a rabid basketball, baseball and football fan, she had a great sense of humor that drew people to her, and laughter was the background music whenever she was nearby. She was loved by so many. She will be deeply loved by all of us, forever.”
