TW: Suicide
As reported by TMZ, according to Jason David Frank‘s representative, Justine Hunt, he has died as a result of suicide. He was 49.
Jason David Frank portrayed Tommy Oliver in all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, Power Rangers Turbo, Power Rangers Dino Thunder and cameo appearances in Power Rangers Wild Force, Power Rangers Super Megaforce, Power Rangers HyperForce, and Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel.
Walter Jones, who played the black ranger in ‘MMPR,’ tells TMZ… “He was an inspiration to so many people. His presence will be dearly missed. It’s so sad to lose another member of our Ranger family.” He adds, “Jason was one of the biggest pranksters on the show. He had a wild sense of humor. We had our shares of ups and downs but I stayed consistent about being an ear if he needed one. My prayers go out to his family and all that will miss him.”
Jason’s rep Justine tells TMZ… “Please respect the privacy of his family and friends during this horrible time as we come to terms with the loss of such a wonderful human being. He loved his family, friends and fans very much. He will truly be missed.”
Rest In Peace to Jason David Frank. We are saddened by his loss and hope his family, friends and fans find peace and solace during this time.
