edited to add characters' names or connection to the show - please remember that not everyone knows the real names of the actors who play the various characters or the writers, etc. - JS

I wish you'd have put their characters' names, as many people won't recognize their pictures (if they weren't watching back then) or know the actors' names.

edited to add: I've edited the initial post to include each character name or how the person was connected to the show.
 
Jason, that is absolutely Wonderful! Thank you so much. You have put so much time and effort into this very special Days anniversary, it is very much appreciated.

As an aside.I did not know that Wayne Hufsley (Vern) had passed away.

Thank you again.
 
Thank you, Jason.

I remember Antony Alda. I believe he is Alan Alda's (from M*A*S*H) brother. He was supposed to be a Bo Brady impersonator (I think in 1990) and was to get plastic surgery to look like Bo. If I remember right, he was working for Ernesto Toscano (the man who later "killed" Hope in the vat of acid). But the details are fuzzy.

I put together a lot of tributes in the past few months, and identified all of them in the memorial video I posted on YouTube. Didn't happen to include their names in this one specific tribute. Did the best I could!
 
It's just hard when you don't know the names of the actors or don't recognize their pictures.
 
I thought it was wonderful ..........thank you again, Jason. I know the top row are the creators of Days, the next row are producers, including the fabulous Al Rabin, and the 3rd row are writers. Just a bit of info, but Elizabeth Harrower is the mother of Susan Seaforth Hayes who plays Julie.

As to character names, doesn't bother me, because I did not come to Days til the 80s, when Patch was already on the scene, but I am betting that amongst our members, we can probably put character names to those faces we recall when we watched.

I post my tributes on a lot of message boards and my Facebook page, so these are usually just cut & paste jobs when posted on each board. I see you already mentioned it again on the list of attendees I posted for who was at the party. My lists don't always have the character names listed, and since I don't type these lists just for this specific board, there will be times when the character names are not listed.
 
Jason I very much appreciate all the thought; time & effort you invested in making this Days memorial tribute! Oh the memories it brings to mind & heart.:clap::clap:
 
I'm trying to remember the name of the woman [both the character and the actor] who played Doug's wife before Julie. Dumond??? Isn't that actor deceased? Is she on this list? There is one woman pictured that I thought might possibly be her.
 
Yes, she's on the list above, Brenda Benet (Lee DuMonde). In real life, she was the ex-wife of actor Bill Bixby (The Incredible Hulk, My Favorite Martian, Courtship of Eddie's Father).

Then it's up to the mods here to add the names since we want everyone to know who is being discussed. Nothing worse than having no clue who someone is or who they played on the show.
 
How about the Asian woman in Doug's life? Otherwise, thanks so much. There are some I didn't know had passed away. Some must have been pretty young.
