YouTube video

*We have sad news about Eunetta Boone, the showrunner of “Raven’s Home.” Boone apparently suffered a heart attack and passed away at the age of 63.

Boone, who inspired many diverse writers throughout her career, had taken the reins on the third season of the popular Disney Channel series last year.

Boone was found deceased in her Los Angeles home on Wednesday morning (March 20).

Boone’s reputation as a consummate storyteller was well-earned through her roles as creator and executive producer of the comedy series “One on One” and “Cuts” as well as having been co-executive producer of “My Wife and Kids” and “The Hughleys.”  She also wrote on the staffs of “The Parent ‘Hood,” and “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.”

After “One on One,” Boone taught screenwriting at UCLA Extension for six years. Last year she decided to return to producing and threw her hat in the ring to join the staff of “Raven’s Home.” She was brought on as a consultant toward the end of season two which led to her being asked to run the series in season three which is in production.

She is survived by her mother, Eunice Taylor; sister, Regina Ward; nieces, Breawna Taylor,  MaKenna Ward and a host of friends and family.

STATEMENT FROM DISNEY CHANNEL

“Eunetta Boone was a wonderful person and a consummate storyteller and teacher, and through her leadership on many productions including ‘Raven’s Home,’ she did so well what she enjoyed most — mentoring creative talent.  Eunetta will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by everyone who knew her.  All of us at Disney Channel grieve her passing and send our deepest condolences to her family, friends and colleagues.”
