Ron Howard, her onetime co-star, and like her an actor who went on to become a celebrated film director, stated on Twitter, "She was funny & so smart. She made the transition from sitcom star to A List movie director with ease & had a major impact on both mediums. All that & always relaxed, funny & totally unpretentious. I was lucky to have known & worked with her."]
Major League Baseball tweeted the following statement: "We join the baseball community in mourning the passing of Penny Marshall, director of A League of Their Own."

They never really tell you why or what these stars die from (unless it's a drug over dose)

Penny Marshall’s death was attributed to complications from diabetes, but she also battled cancer within the last decade.

I was too busy making money in the days she was on TV so I didn't see her very much

She may have best been known for playing the role of Laverne DeFazio on Laverne & Shirley — which was a spin-off of Happy Days. Laverne & Shirley was on the air for eight seasons, from 1976 to 1983, and really put Marshall on the celebrity map.
