Emmy winner and set designer Evelyn Sakash (66) was found dead in her home on Tuesday this week, after being reported missing since September last year.
The 66-year-old deceased was found among garbage and scrap metal in the kitchen of the apartment in the New York borough of Queens.
Star in pain
A spokesperson for the New York Police Department confirmed that Sakash died of natural causes as a result of an atherosclerotic disease, according to The Independent.
After the award-winning production designer was reported missing six months ago, family members and acquaintances raised money through GoFundMe’s “Let’s Find Evelyn” campaign.
