GH:Shell Kepler Passed away yesterday.

[Southofnowhere]

I just read on TMZ.com that Shell Kepler who played Nurse Amy Vining passed away from Renal failure in Portland ,Ore. She was only 49 years old.....R.I.P.

[Faulkner]

Wow, how sad...R.I.P.

GH should definitely figure out some way to do a tribute, but with this group at the helm, it's unlikely.

[DaytimeFan]

So young. How tragic. Rest in Peace Shell, you were one of the best.

[FrenchFan]

Oh Gosh no !!! I'm shocked. You will remain in my heart Shell.

[AddictedToSoaps]

How awful! She was so young too!

My sympathies to her family. RIP Shell!

I too wish GH would do something, but with the current regime we'll be lucky to even get a small mention of her passing at the end of a show.

[CassieFan]

Do you have her picture? I don't know who she was on GH.

[Cheap21]

she played that nosy big mouth nurse who always used to gossip. She was Laura's sister and was last seen in 2002, I beleive

[Jermetria]

My thoughts and prayers go to her family. I always liked Amy. Here is a picture of her:

[Michael]

Wow, that's really sad. Rest in peace.

It would be nice for GH to at least flash a memorial card at the end of an episode, but I don't have too much faith in this group, as was said above.

[Tishy]

How sad, I loved AMy Vining. My heart goes out to the family.

[Juliajms]

I've missed her on GH.

[Khan]

How sad is it that I had to stop and actually recall who Shell Kepler was?

Not holding my breath for a tribute. All these people know how to do anymore is kill off characters, then have them parade around as ghosts.

[David_Vickers]

So so I really liked Amy. She was so funny with all her gossiping. I've missed Shell over the years. Rest In Peace Shell. Gone too soon.

My net was down all day yesterday and TMZ is in my usual rounds of sites I surf and I just read that, opened another tab and came here. How sad and so young too. I remember her character on GH. She was one of the funny ones, always up in everyones business. She will be missed and my prayers go out to her family and it would be nice if GH did something even at the end, but like most of you have said, highly doubt it.

[David_Vickers]

I too hope GH pays tribute to Shell. They should have Amy have died offscreen, maybe of the same thing as Ms. Kepler did. Maybe have a funeral, and have Luke and Lesley visit Laura and tell her.
