I have been reading several books about OLTL...and I know that Viki was in Heaven in 1987, and that she found there her beloved Joe... But who else was there??? In a Daytime to remember, I only recognized dressed in white: Joe (Lee patterson), the first Vinnie (A Ponzini), the first Sam (the wonderful Julie Montgomery <the only footage video I have seen of this actress in OLTL>), the first Peter Janssen (J Pomerantz) and I think the second Merri Lord (Lynn Benesh)... In an old OLTL picture I saw people dressed in black (I suppose the "bad" people from llanview), but I don't know who they are....

The little blonde is Tracy James (played by Kristen Allen, who apparently never did anything else, according to imdb). She was a candystriper at the hospital who fell in love with Larry and ended up killing his wife Laurel (Rob Coronal's mother, and Cassie's then-mother-in-law) because she wanted Larry for herself. She also killed Dr. Polk, Viki's long-time psychiatrist.

One of the guys is Stick (played by Mark Metcalf, of Animal House fame), who was Tracy's accomplice, for reasons I can't remember. Both were killed by a bomb they set in the secret room at Llanfair; they died when they couldn't get out in time. (Apparently, the secret room doubled as a bomb shelter, since the rest of the house was not affected, even structurally).

I think the other guy is Mitch Laurence (Roscoe Born).

I believe Viki's brother Tony Lord was there also, played by the second (and IMO the boring version) actor, Philip McHale. At the time, this sort of bummed me out because I wanted the character to be somehow still alive, just with an actor more similar to George Reinholt than McHale.

Victor (a recast, Les Tremayne who also subbed for David Lewis as Edward on GH) and Eugenia (forgetting actress' name) were also there.

The "good" people in white were both of Viki's parents, Irene Manning, Al Roberts, her sister Merri, Vinnie Wolek, samantha Vern, Tony, Doctor Polk and Harry O'neal. Yes the bad people were Tracy James, Stick and Mitch Laurence. the bad people were all part of the 1985 Niki storyline. Remember Bobby played by Blair Underwood saved Niki's life from Stick.
