RIP Jerry  Ross' election day nightmare was the first episode of GL I ever watched! He and Michael Zaslow got me hooked.

Wasn’t that Trish Lewis, Josh and Billy Lewis’ sister? I think I began watching GL at the end of her run.

I don't have a Clue all i Know is The Actress is Lisby Larson Who played Paige Marshall Carrington on Texas, but if she was a Lewis that means she was also Vanessa's Sister in Law?

Oh, damn. Very sad. I had a feeling it was coming based on past noise, but it's still a big shock and a heartbreak.

Most knew JVD best for his wonderful years on GL, but I knew him best from OLTL. I felt he essayed the role of Clint Buchanan very well in turbulent times, making the character his own and evolving it, often rising well above bad writing. His chemistry with Bob Woods and Erika Slezak was different from his predecessor but stellar and crackling, and he was a sage voice both onscreen and in support of the show. But more than all of that, he was an icon and a brilliant brand ambassador for the soaps and soap opera history, a tower of charisma, striking intelligence and class. He'll be so missed.

I don’t think so. Ross and Vanessa had a child together (Dinah) but I don’t remember them ever getting married.

So sorry to hear this!!  Ive only seen snippets of him on GL and OLTL but he was a very talented, charismatic actor! 
 

I am not clear on whether Vanessa and Ross’ brief rekindled relationship ever overlapped with Trish and Ross’ romance though.

This (timestamped below at the proper time) is the moment that will always stay with me for JVD on OLTL. At the edge of the end for both the show (it would go off the air on ABC a week later) and his character and Erika Slezak's, Jerry completely sells this moment beautifully despite a very rushed final story. He speaks on behalf of not just himself and Viki but the show itself, and he's just wonderful:

OH YES! I've seen a while Ago, It TAKES REAL ACTING SKILLS to sell a scene like this on a budgeted Beyond like that

Lisby played Calla Matthews, Lillian's sister.  Ross and  Calla were involved around that time.
