Danny Tamberelli is paying tribute to his former childhood co-star, Michelle Trachtenberg.
For those who don’t know, the pair worked together on the ‘90s show The Adventures of Pete & Pete on Nickelodeon. Danny starred as “Little” Pete Wrigley, while Michele played the role of his best friend Nona F. Mecklenberg starting in the second season. Following the news that the 39-year-old actress passed away this week, he took to Instagram to remember his co-star. It’s a beautiful post, Perezcious readers. Danny wrote alongside pictures of them from the series:
“We grew up learning how to make people laugh together. More importantly, we learned to make each other laugh and pull pranks on everyone. We were doing improv when it was still called playing pretend to get laughs. She was a master of the clothespin game, tagging any and everyone she could. She once got upset when I got my 1st bass on set because I wouldn’t hang out during lunch. She hid the cable so I couldn’t play through the amp. I got the message.”

It sounds like they made a lot of wonderful memories together on set. The actor continued, praising Michelle for being such a “bright light” over the years:
“She was a bright light, firecracker and caring person who spent a lot of time and effort advocating for people who needed a louder voice. Michelle was someone to look up to in this business and to the general world at large. She will be missed. All my love, sympathy and compassion to Lana, Irene and the rest of her family and friends.”

Our hearts continue to go out to all those who knew and loved Michelle so much. Rest in peace…
