hi there
Hey this is really sad. Dana was my hero. I liked it when she was naked
she was just getting started in her career she will be missed
Very tragic sad life story. This is an example of why a person can not let what others say define who you are…
R.I.P Dana, you will be sorely missed.
Dana, I know what it is to be disappointed to wake up every morning and find yourself alive.
I know what it is like living after your anti-depressant has worn off to soon.
You were mistunderstood–I know, because every morning I see you in my mirror.
I am so sorry for you.
This is beyond sad to me. To think that people were so cruel to her the day earlier. I hope Stern rethinks some of the horrible stuff he does. People are exploited endlessly by sum like him. Also all the name callers, I know, the wrath will come for every time you judge and point a thumb, you will pay for it three fold. You no doubt know that now!!
Life is a fragile thing… A Flower thats gone leaves a memory of summer.
You’ll be missed.
I’m so sorry we couldn’t have done more, Dear Dana. From your friends at A Minor Consideration.
Ela era como uma bonequinha de porcelana
Foi tão fragil até o fim d sua vida
Tanto na mente como no corpo
Sorry for your loss
diffrent strokes is my favorite show of all time
Sorry I did’t get to know you. You are truly missed.
I watched most of the tribute video and had to stop, because it was far to sad. It is nice too know that you took part in a memory that we all can look back on and Always will remember you and your talent.
ITS SAD THAT YA DIED SO YOUNG I HOPE YOU ARE AT PEACE NOW, GOD BLESS YOU XX
I remember laughing yesterday…now the laughter seems so far away
I grew up with this young lady, so beautiful. It saddens me that she never got to live her life. RIP
Fragile come un fiore, luce di molti miei ricordi.
tuo, Mr
i have so many fond memories of dana and the rim jobs she would give the cast and crew for some coke. her tounge would actually tickle my liver. she would get in deep, that was a fact motherfucker. i loved the way she woud look for young pussies to suck on each day. when she came into your dressing room and would fart loud it meant she wanted anal. if she puked twice on your nutsack it meant more fisting by a midget. she loved vicodin and feces mixed together with rabbit blood. i think we should dig her up and have her on a reunion show for different spooks. a rotting corpse always gets the ratings and the laughs. what you talkin bout corpse. no thats a line that gets laughs. as a negro and a loser i will make this happen.
So young and beautiful too soon. Dana may your soul rest in piece.
a tragic waste and missed so much RIP dana.
RIP to Dana, Haim & don’t forget about Coleman as well but…, soon just sooner or later Lindsay Lohan (remember that Mean Girls starlet)will end up just like Plato when she was in HER 20s.
GOD HELP OUR SOULS! sad
I grew up watch different strokes,Dana you will be missed
Why would I say you will be missed? she cannot hear me because she is a rotting corpse. i loved the show because i would oftentimes fantasize about being pounded by willis and arnold while dana peed into a funnel while fingering a mildly retarded squirrel. i would put a bed post in my cavernous snatch box and a statue of the empire state building up my rectum. my neighbors would watch and clap ass i played the piano while doing this. one time i experienced prolapse in the middle of playing the alley cat in g minor. my intestine fell out like a party blower but i did not stop!!the show must go on and indeed it did,indeed it did. to here of her death was like losing a sister i never loved or wanted. i knew at that point i must dig her up and put her in my living room to keep her safe from mrs. garrett that fucking old whore. as i started to dig i heard a voice say what you talkin bout motherfucker! it was willis he threw me down and raped me with a pigeon skull and a bottle of ripple, such passion and fun. thank you dana rest easy.
God Bless all your family, friends, fans, loved ones, and even your enemies. We are all children of The Lord Almighty and, deserve respect when we pass away. Dana left us with some good memories as well as bad. I was a fan, and, she is and, always will be missed.
R.I.P
Oh dear Dana, I’m very sad to hear you passed away, God bless you sweetheart.
I like umh to listen to Shane Bugby and Dana Plato talk on the phone. I can picture her with Robert Menchaca staying at the Magnolia Beach Campground in Feb – May 1st. How wonderful. Why didn’t you just stay at the campground Dana? You could have lived there in your RV. It would have been wonderful sweet Dana. I love you so much Dana Plato, tee hee.
There was something about Dana that I just love. I want to reenact her final trip in her RV. I want to stay in the camp site that she stayed in. I want to park in front of the the red brick Menchaca house. She is proof that everything works out in the end.
Does anyone know if her RV is for sale? You would think that if someone hadn’t bought it, it could be donated to the Smithsonian.
Dana will always live on in her tv apperances, movies, and her recorded phone conversations with Shane Bugby.
Too young! RIP so sad
!
Dana will always be loved and missed
To Dana Plato,
I thought you were a great actress. You did a great job as Kimberly Drummond on the sitcom Different Strokes. I will miss seeing you on t.v. Lisa Weiner
We will miss you. So sad to hear about this. Enjoyed watching you on Different Strokes as a child growing up.
What a shame so many child actors become drug addicts and worse before they reach their full potential. R.I.P. Dana
You Was So Young And Beautiful, When You Passed Away Dana,You Was Never A Has Been Despite You Problems With Drugs and alcohol..Everyone Has Their Problems….
I would have fucked her. Right in the ass. At the end she might have let me pay to do just that. Her squirming hot body twisting on the floor as I shove my cock in her tight ass time and time again. Her yelling “Oh Max Oh Max buttfuck me like a whore!” as I slap her thigh. Pulling out of her ass just in time to come in her mouth as she looks up at me and smiles. Then with my cum still on her chin she demands her 25 dollars. Sexy and RIP.
Tragic . Help your brother along the way no matter where he starts for the same God that made him made you too . I hope that you found peace Dana
she was great
I miss you.
R.I.P
I have tired but never succed i wish God could stop us all when we get to the edge.
This really is sad, I remember watching her when I was a child, we have lost so many talented people over the course of my life time, to who ever was talking about having sex with her anally, I dont understand why you would write that trash on a site dedicated to be a memorial for Dana, I didnt know her and Im sure you didnt, but that is just wrong, Yes free speech,but would you go to a funeral and write something like that in the guest book? reguardless, this site isnt about you its about her. She was beautiful and it is sad that she let life get the best of her. You are missed, hopefully you are in heaven now relaxing and not running this race that we are still dealing with. Suicide is such a sad horrible thing.
She is relaxing in hell for killing herself. If it exits I just don’t see how see could be relaxing. I should know.
