In Memoriam
The soap world mourned the loss of Randolph Mantooth, a beloved actor who left an indelible mark on the genre. His roles on 'Loving' and 'The City' as Clay Alden/Alex Masters were iconic, and his passing is a reminder of the impact these shows have on our lives. Lisa LoCicero, who worked closely with Mantooth on 'Loving' and 'The City', expressed her grief and admiration for his talent and support. His legacy will live on through the characters he brought to life, and his absence will be felt by the entire soap community.
