Below is the official obituary for Margaret Trigg. She died in the psychiatric
ward of Bellevue Hospital in New York City on November 16th. The cause of
death was undetected in the initial autopsy. Margaret, along with John Bedford
Lloyd, starred in "Aliens in the Family," a sitcom about an Earthling with two
kids who marries an alien (Margaret) with three kids. Aliens in the Family was
part of ABC's "TGIF" line-up in 1996.
Margaret Trigg was a legend on the downtown comedy circuit. Both for her
immense talent and her killer sex appeal. Many of Margaret's ex-comic
boyfriends swear to this day that they can't bring themselves to orgasm without
thinking of her.
She may be physically gone. But we haven't heard the last of her.
