Script gets stuck when firing a client remotefunction when player dies, why is this?

So i am currently making a script which involves the server getting some information about the players mouse, it all works as intended until the player dies. When the player dies the script that fires the remotefunction that gives the mousedata, never gets the mousedata and just gets stuck. Does anybody know why this happens?

Here is the function in the main that needs the mousedata script:

01local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
02local remotes = rs:WaitForChild("Remotes")
03local telekinesisCooldown = 3
04local deBounces = {["abilityCooldown"] = false, ["toggleCooldown"] = false}
05 
06game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
07    local playerFolder = Instance.new("Folder", rs:WaitForChild("ActiveAbilities"))
08    playerFolder.Name = plr.Name
09 
10    local deBounceFolder = Instance.new("Folder", rs:WaitForChild("deBounce"))
11    deBounceFolder.Name = plr.Name
12 
13    for debounceName, value in pairs(deBounces) do
14        local deBounceBool = Instance.new("BoolValue", deBounceFolder)
15        deBounceBool.Name = debounceName
16    end
17 
18    local telekinesisActive = Instance.new("BoolValue", playerFolder)
19    telekinesisActive.Name = script.Name
20end)
21 
22local function setPos(mouseData, plr)
23 
24    repeat
25        mouseData[1] = plr.PlayerGui.givemouseData:InvokeClient(plr)[1]
26 
27        if mouseData[2] ~= nil then
28            mouseData[2].Position = mouseData[1]
29        end
30 
31    until not rs.ActiveAbilities[mouseData[3].Name][script.Name].Value or plr.Character.Humanoid.Health <= 0
32 
33end
34 
35remotes.telekinesis.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
36    local deBounce = rs.deBounce[plr.Name].abilityCooldown
37    if plr.Character then
38        if plr.Character.telekinesis.Value and not deBounce.Value then
39 
40            deBounce.Value = true
41            local playerMouseData = plr.PlayerGui.givemouseData:InvokeClient(plr) -- This is where it gets stuck
42            local partToMove = playerMouseData[2]
43 
44            print(playerMouseData[2])
45            if playerMouseData[2] ~= "void" and playerMouseData[2] ~= nil then
46                game:GetService("Chat"):Chat(plr.Character.Head, "Etativel", "Red")
47                setPos(playerMouseData, plr)
48            end
49 
50            wait(telekinesisCooldown)
51            deBounce.Value = false
52 
53        end
54    end
55end)

And here is the localscript sending the mousedata:

1local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
2local mouse = player:GetMouse()
3local giveData = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("givemouseData")
4 
5giveData.OnClientInvoke = function()
6    local mouseData = {mouse.hit.Position, mouse.Target, game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer}
7    return mouseData
8end
