He noted that their bond went beyond professionalism, “But to me, he was my friend. One of the best I’ve ever had. He was a mentor, a sounding board, a trusted confidant, and even a father-figure [sic] beyond, yes, playing my own father on #GH and #PortCharles.”
The actor added, “And he was one of the funniest people you could hope to spend time with over a bottle of good wine and a great meal. I will miss him terribly.”
