Members quartermainefan Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 James Mitchell age kind of snuck up on him. He was fine and then suddenly his voice became shakey. Then it was his hand. It saddens me whenever I see him because he is a shadow of his former self. Still, I guess being 88 is better than the alternative. Keep on plugging away James!

Members Paul Raven Posted July 11, 2008 Members Share Posted July 11, 2008 Looking back at some actors who worked till their death,or into their 70's and 80's. MacDonald Carey was 81 at the time of his death in 94.He had appeared on Days that year. Joseph Mascolo is listed on IMDB as being 73,but I read recently he is in fact about 5 years older John Aniston is 75. Bill Hayes is 83. Gil Rogers,who recently appeared again as Hawk,Reva's dad is 74. Jerry Douglas is 76. David Bailey (Alistair Passions)was 71 at the time of his death. Santos Ortega(Grandpa Hughes ATWT)was 77 at he time of his death in 76.I think he was last onscreen in 75. William Johnstone(judge Lowell ATWT)was last seen onscreen in 79 when he was 71 Theo Getz played Papa Bauer on GL until his death at age 78 in 72 Anna Lee was 90 when she last appeared on GH Rachel Ames was 77 when she last was seen on GH John Beradino was 79 when last on GH Don MacLaughlin was 79 when he last appeared on ATWT in 86 shorly before his death. Hugh Marlowe played Jim Matthews on AW until his death at age 71 Ruth Warrick was in her late 80's when she last appeared on AMC Dame Judith Anderson played Minx on SB at age 87 Mary Stuart was 75 when last seen as Meta on GL Larry Haines was 77 when he appeared as Neal on Loving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 12, 2008 Members Share Posted July 12, 2008 God bless EIleen and James from AMC--88 and still managing to make appearances--I'll be really sad when they're gone. It's funny Ray McD/Joe is someone I take for granted--he really must be in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
