Members MissLlanviewPA Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 RIP. I haven't been able to watch the show for the last two weeks, but I saw the scenes with him and Emma and wanted to cry. What a perfect ending. Have Stuart or Leslie tweeted anything yet?

Members AdelaideCate007 Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 Ah, I'd forgotten about that! I'll find them on my computer and send them to you bestie It really was. I'm so glad his last scenes were with Tracy and him telling her that he loved her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MrQuartermaine Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 Not yet. Stuart's own health isn't very good & this has really broken his heart. Leslie, as well as Jane, are both equally devestated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JAS0N47 Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 UPDATED TO INCLUDE QUOTES & INTERVIEW PAGE INFO: John Ingle, who played Mickey Horton on "Days of Our Lives" from 2004-2006, has passed away. Ingle died on Sunday, September 16, 2012 at the age of 84. Ingle's most famous role was as Edward Quartermaine on "General Hospital", a role he portrayed from 1993-2003 and again from 2006 until his death. Ingle was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma on May 7, 1928, the son of John and Myrtle Ingle. He graduated from Occidental College in Los Angeles and was in the Navy from 1951-1955. He then began subbing and soon a job opened up at Hollywood High School, where he became the school's drama director in the winter of 1955. He would later go on to teach English and theater, first at Hollywood, and later at Beverly Hills High School, for thirty years, from 1955-1985. Some of the actors that Ingle taught include Louise Sorel, Mike Farrell, Swoosie Kurtz, Stefanie Powers, Linda Evans, Nicolas Cage, Richard Dreyfuss and David Schwimmer. Louise Sorel (Vivian Alamain), in a Soap Opera Digest interview from 2000, had this to say about John: "I can't say enough about that man. He felt that you could do whatever you wanted to do. I couldn't wait to get to school to see what he had to say...just be in the room because of his energy. He was very supportive, but he never intimidated you. He simply demanded the best." Ingle concurred and said: "I took no crap. Anyone you ask, I think they'll say that I was pretty tough. I didn't believe in being a dilettante...but nothing is acceptable short of excellence." In a 1995 interview with Soap Opera Digest, Swoosie Kurtz remarked: "John Ingle is the reason I became an actress. He was one of the great teachers. He taught me about energy...performance energy, the energy needed to walk across a stage. He will always have a special place in my heart." A Soap Opera Weekly interview from 1995 states that, in 1983, as he was getting ready to retire from teaching, Ingle encountered an old college friend, Guy Steiner, who was now an agent. Steiner convinced Ingle that he had both the talent and the courage to seek acting jobs. Early in his acting career, Ingle said that "I was the king of the day players, the prince of the under-fives. My resume is loaded with guest spots." Besides his roles on "Days" and "General Hospital", Ingle also appeared on such series as "Who's the Boss?", "Newhart", "The Facts of Life", "Highway to Heaven", "Cheers", "Family Ties", "ALF", "Coach", "The Golden Girls", "Beverly Hills, 90210", "The Office" and "Parks and Recreation." He also appeared in several movies, including "Heathers", "Robocop 2", "Death Becomes Her", and "Batman & Robin." Ingle was nominated for two Soap Opera Digest Awards, and won the award in 1998 for male scene stealer. Frank Valenti, executive producer of "General Hospital", released this statement on Twitter: "With great sadness, I share the news of John Ingle's passing. We love him and will miss him. John will always be a part of the #GH family." Ingle's family released this statement on Facebook: "Father, Husband, Grandan, Great Grandan, Brother, Uncle, Friend, Teacher, Inspirer, Mentor: May You Soar with the Angels. You will forever hold a special place in the deepest corners of our hearts." In 1954, Ingle married Grace-Lynn Martin. They remained married until her death earlier this year. Ingle is survived by five daughters: twins Jennifer and Jessica, Carey, Melanie and Christin; and many grandchildren. MONDAY EVENING UPDATE: Read through many of John's interviews, including his first "General Hospital" interview from 1993, his thoughts on his two years at "Days", his memories of many of his acting students (including Nicolas Cage, Richard Dreyfuss, Linda Evans and David Schwimmer), pictures of his wife and daughters, and why he ended up having to kiss model Cindy Crawford...50 times!

Members AdelaideCate007 Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm sorry to hear about this as well. I know it must be hard on all three. The Quartermaines (featuring me and SoapBoy's AmTam- the *real* Emily): and for MissLlanviewPA, a photo of him on The Facts of Life: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 I thought BOTH of you were MY best friends. Looks like I'll have to find Jimmy DePaiva and get comforted properly! YES! He married Rick & Jo! I just watched that a few weeks ago . He also married Stuart & Kelly on Coach. I think he was often typecast as a priest before GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AdelaideCate007 Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 When you find him, I'm going to break that legal order that keeps me out of the US and I'm going to track you down and we're going to have to fight over him like its 1989 and you're Gabrielle and I'm Megan. And you're all my best friends- Alexisfan, SoapBoy, AND MissLlanviewPa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 I love all three of y'all, too! Shiot, we hyjacked the John thread. Now I feel rude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 How bizarre, considering that's when I was born . OTOH, we could take it to 1994, where I'm Blair and you're Luna . I know. But I guess it broke the tension, such as it can be online. Are there any other shows where JI played a priest besides FOL and Coach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Chandler Quartermaine Posted September 18, 2012 Members Share Posted September 18, 2012 I hate this I actually teared up when I saw the headline, he was one of my favorites, and was really a big part of what made me like GH when I first started watching.
