It says a lot when you can go toe-to-toe with the likes of Elizabeth Hubbard and Beverlee McKinsey and not vanish into the scenery.

Now that I think about, you’re right. Bob did always did have a haughtiness about him. I always thought he was too tough on Christopher as an adult. Then there is the time when Kim was having a hard time forgiving Bob for cheating on her with Susan and Bob had the gall to say, “Could you imagine my mother being so unforgiving to my father?” Then Kim rightly replied, “Chris never would have cheated on Nancy!”

I always kind of thought Bob cheating on kim with Susan was perfect karma..since kim pursued bob when he was married to her sister Jennifer.  Glad Nancy pointed that out to kim.

Random post alert! The actor who played Luke Snyder as a baby, Spencer Goodnow, has an easily found Instagram. He doesn't post much, but I know it's him because he posted a SOW cover with him on it back in the day.

 

Here's what he looks like now:

What a great pic. Do you know which year it was taken?

Can someone who watched ATWT back when Jennifer was on tell me how she died? I mean, I know she died in a car accident but what were the circumstances? Was it just a random car accident? Did it happen off-screen?

May she RIP. Wasn't Rosa part of Lucinda's household staff?

[DRW50]

 

She initially worked for John and Dusty. Then I think she worked for Lucinda.

Thanks!!

Initially, Rosa worked in the kitchen on the ranch in New Mexico that Dusty ran away to after he graduated from high school, in order to get away from John and all the pressures he was facing in Oakdale concerning his future.  Meg also found out where he was and followed him there.  Eventually Meg was able to convince Dusty to return with her to Oakdale.

 

When John was out of town, his housekeeper (who had been recommended by Shannon O'Hara after Shannon moved out of John's penthouse) got arrested for some thefts and Dusty contacted Rosa to see if she wanted to job that had been left vacant by the housekeeper's arrest.

 

She worked for John but got fed up with John's rudeness and his lack of consideration.  Meanwhile, Lucinda's temperamental cook threw a fit and when Lucinda discovered that the cook often lashed out after losing her temper, she fired her.  Dusty suggested that Lucinda give Rosa a chance and Lucinda agreed.  After that, she worked for Lucinda, which became even more comical once John and Lucinda got married and John ended up living at Lucinda's mansion.

I'll profile Antonia Rey for the Hoppers thread, but I'll have to check  a few cast lists. I know she also appeared on The Secret Storm, but I want to check a few others before I set it up.    I loved her scenes as Rosa.

Wow! Thanks for the recap. I loved when even the minor characters were as fleshed out as this.
