It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of beloved actor Lynne Marta at the age of 78. After a courageous battle with cancer, she peacefully passed away in her home in Los Angeles on Thursday. Lynne, who was born in New Jersey, captured the hearts of audiences with her memorable performances on both the big and small screens.

One of her most iconic roles was that of Lulu Warnicker in the beloved 90s film Footloose, where she starred alongside Kevin Bacon and Sarah Jessica Parker. In this 1984 movie, Lynne played the role of Ren's aunt, adding a touch of warmth and humor to the film. Her dear friend Chris Saint-Hilaire, who shared the news of her passing with The Hollywood Reporter, described Lynne as a talented and kind-hearted person who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Lynne's acting career began in 1966 with a role in the comedy Gidget, and she went on to appear in 18 episodes of Love, American Style. She also made appearances in popular TV shows such as ER, Law & Order, Starsky & Hutch, Charlie's Angels, and Days Of Our Lives. While Footloose remains her most well-known role, Lynne also shined in other films such as Joe Kidd, where she starred alongside Clint Eastwood, and 3 Men and a Little Lady.

But Lynne was not only an actress, she was also a singer and dancer. She first entered showbusiness after being cast in The Lloyd Thaxton Show. Her talents and passion for the arts were evident in all her performances, and she will forever be remembered for her incredible talent and dedication to her craft.
