Actress Amber Tamblyn joined the cast of General Hospital, back in 1995, playing the role of Emily Quartermaine until 2001. Tamblyn was 11 years old when she took on the role of being an adopted addition to the legendary Quartermaine family.
Back in June, in the wake of co-star and TV father, Stuart Damon’s (Alan Quartermaine) death, General Hospital news reports reveal Amber took to Twitter to reflect on her time with the GH family, and publicly displayed love and support for Damon and the rest of the cast and crew of General Hospital.
Take a look below at Tamblyn’s tweets. The GH vet still has love for her first big job, and the first set where she felt like family.
Broken hearted to hear of the passing of Stuart Damon. He played my adopted dad on General Hospital for 7 years and he was the most kind, wonderful, loving, supportive person. He always made me laugh and made me feel safe on set. I love you, Stewy. Rest well now, my friend. pic.twitter.com/XY5mEfwezn
At last month’s end, General Hospital news reports announced the devastating news regarding the passing of General Hospital icon, Stuart Damon. His past co-stars and life long friends shared their condolences to his family with a heavy heart, while expressing their fondness and admiration for such a kind, talented, and legendary man.
General Hospital spoilers reveal GH will create a special tribute episode that will air in honor of Stuart, and is iconic role on General Hospital as Alan Quartermaine.
General Hospital news reports reveal a very telling statement by on-screen wife, Leslie Charleson, who played beside Damn for decades as Monica Quartermaine. At the time of learning of her co-star’s passing, Charles stated, “This is the 30th anniversary for the two of us, in August. The timing leaves me very discouraged about the way soaps are going, the total disregard for history and the blatant disregard for the veterans.” When Damon was fired in 2007 by Jill Farren Phelps, at the order of Brian Frons and Anne Sweeney, Charleson, among many other leading co-stars, spoke out against the decision to just throw away a veteran character.
Although killed off the show in 2007, Damon made appearances heee and there as a ghost and hallucinations, and his last appearance was during GH’s 50th anniversary in 2013.
General Hospital news and spoilers have yet to reveal any details on when this tribute episode will air or what the premise will be other than the obvious. Like the tribute episode for John Reilly and is role as Sean Donnelly, this episode’s main focus will be on the life of Alan Quartermaine. But it’s not clear if there will be a separate storyline as there was in the episode honoring John/Sean.
