It was Gil’s request that her diagnosis be kept private, and as a family, they supported her in this decision.

“Cherie fought bravely against her illness, with grace and strength. Despite her struggles, she always managed to exude courage and never lost her trademark sass, wit, and infectious humor, or her larger-than-life personality.”

According to statement, Gil spent her last days surrounded by family and loved ones.

And while they are deeply saddened by her loss and still mourning her passing, Gil’s family said the outpouring of love and support for her and them is just an evidence of just how many lives the actress touched.
