Tributes come pouring in for the late Anne Heche.
While the actress' heart is still beating, she is brain dead, which is the definition of death according to California law. Her rep told ET in a statement that Heche has not been taken off life support in order to allow OneLegacy Foundation enough time to find organ recipients who will be a match.
"Today we lost a bright light, a kind and most joyful soul, a loving mother, and a loyal friend," the statement reads in part."Anne will be deeply missed but she lives on through her beautiful sons, her iconic body of work, and her passionate advocacy. Her bravery for always standing in her truth, spreading her message of love and acceptance, will continue to have a lasting impact.
Celebrities across Hollywood sent their condolences following the news. Stephen Kunken offered a personal memory of working with Heche on Broadway."Some years ago I was Anne Heche’s quirky suitor in PROOF on Broadway. She was as kooky and utterly fabulous as I could have ever dreamed," he wrote on Twitter. "An immense talent I loved playing opposite & more importantly a truly decent human and friend. The news is just unendingly sad.
