Curly’s Health
Towards the late ‘40s, Curly’s health wasn’t getting any better. After he finished shooting Hold That Lion! with his brothers, he suffered a number of additional strokes. Sadly, it caused his health to decline even faster. Unfortunately, there was nothing anyone could do.

On January 18th, 1952, Curly passed away due to his health conditions and medical issues. He was only 48 years old. The news of his death was devastating to everyone: family, friends, and fans. No one wanted to lose their favorite stooge in such a terrible way. Sadly, The Three Stooges endured another loss during this difficult time.
