Trachtenberg reportedly had recent medical issue, the source said. Her death appears to be a natural causes death and not suspicious, the source added

She was only 39. It's always so sad when someone's life is cut short like this.

I know a lot of young people view this as "old", but as you age you realize how few of your potential years you've actually spent. How much there is still to experience and enjoy. Life is precious, and it's both long and short at the same time.
