Actor and Voice artist David HK Bell known for his work in Disney’s Lilo and Stitch was found dead on Monday. Read on to know the cause of his death.
In shocking news to Disney fans around the world, actor David H. K. Bell, popularly known for his work in the live-action film Lilo and Stitch, was recently pronounced dead by his sister in a Facebook post. His sister, Jalene Kanani Bell, penned a heartfelt note for her late brother and mourned the loss of “a generous, funny, brilliant, and handsome little brother.” While the reasons for the death are still unknown, the late actor and voice artist’s sister wrote, “It is with a heavy heart I share that my sweet, generous, talented, funny, brilliant and handsome little brother David H. K. Bell will spend today in the company of our Heavenly Father. I’ve been waiting for the words and mindset to properly express the joy of a human, and Prince of a Man he was, but fate pushed my hand this morning by a pre-scheduled Father’s Day newsletter honoring the men in our lives.”
While speaking more about her brother Jalene wrote, “I met my little brother at the age of 18, on my high school graduation day, it was the most amazing surprise which I had been asking for for years, that our mom’s made happen for us, and that gift has lasted a lifetime.
While I didn’t grow up with a Father, David gave me all the unconditional love I could possibly ask for and I believe that all his family and friends received the same from him. He was always so proud of me, his nieces and his grandnephew, constantly engaged and always coming up with fun activities to get-together. We looked forward to going to Tatihi and the Lindsey reunion together to create more family connections. David loved being an actor, doing voiceovers, spending time with Brutus traveling as an ambassador for Kona Brew. The film industry and entertainment was so exciting to him and I loved that he enjoyed the arts. He went to Punahou and Kalani while our dad spoke Hawaiian so his ability to deliver lines with English understanding, Indigenous knowledge and Pidgen to da Max…made him a diamond in the rough diamond. You can hear him over the PA system on arrival at Kona Airport where he loved working to create an awesome and safe customer experience.
He was and will remain a bright and shining star. He recently made it onto the big screen with an iconic Lilo & Stich moment.”
