The soap star’s publicist Cynthia Snyder tells Deadline he died Friday at the Motion Picture and Television Woodland Hills Home following a years-long struggle with Alzheimer’s.

“Wayne was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s 6 years ago. He took his last breath in the arms of his family,” said Wayne’s wife Lynn Herring Northrop in a statement. “We wish to thank the most caring and amazing place, The Motion Picture and Television Home for taking such great care of him. Wayne touched so many people with his sense of humor and wit. A husband for 43 years, the best dad ever to his two boys, Hank and Grady, and a rancher who loved his cows and was a friend to many.”

Not sure why this shocked me - I guess 77 isn't exactly young but to lose him this soon after Drake and with the Bill Hayes memorial finally airing, it hurts a bit. RIP Wayne. The show treated him badly after they decided John and Marlena was the end-game couple.
