did laverne from scrubs die in real life
My Long Goodbye Although this is Aloma Wright's last regular appearance as Laverne Roberts, she returned in the Season 7 episode "My Hard Labor" as Nurse Shirley, whose similarities to Laverne go unnoticed by all except J.D. Early reports stated that Aloma Wright would return as Laverne's alcoholic twin sister.[3] Wright would reprise her role as Laverne in a flashback in the season 8 episode "My Comedy Show" and in the season eight finale, "My Finale".
