“She radiated a light so strong and bright,” Scott said. “People who came in contact with her felt nothing but positive energy. We will miss her tremendously and will continue to honor her life forever.”

Johnson’s official cause of death has not been confirmed.

An aneurysm is a bulge in the wall of an artery, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

The organization notes that aneurysms form when there’s a weak area in the artery wall and an untreated aneurysm can burst open, leading to internal bleeding.

Johnson was featured in a 1998 episode of Beverley Hills, 90210, where she played the character of Judy, according to her IMDb.

She also appeared in projects including Dude, Where’s My Car?, Shadow Fury, Wanda at Large, Legacy and The Summer of Massacre.

Before her acting career, she competed in the 1992 Miss Pennsylvania USA pageant, which she won.

She went on to compete in the 1993 Miss USA beauty pageant, where she finished in the top five.
