LOS ANGELES -
David Bailey, a star of the NBC soap opera "Passions," died in an
accidental drowning, the show's producers said Tuesday. He was 71.
Bailey died Nov. 25, the show said in a statement.
The veteran actor played ruthless
Alistair Crane, who was in the "Passions" story since its debut in 1999
but was only heard and never seen until Bailey took the role and gave
it a face in September.
"It is with great sadness that we learned
of the sudden passing of David Bailey," said executive producer Lisa de
Cazotte. "He was a man of great compassion and kindness as well as an
extraordinary actor. "
Bailey is survived by his wife, Yvonne Bailey of Philadelphia, and a son, Xander Bailey, of Los Angeles.
I don't think it's been this uncomfortable and quiet at work since Josh
died...I think everyone's still in shock over David's death. It came so
sudden. The funeral was Tuesday. Ben spoke on behalf of the entire
Passions cast. It was beautiful, and David would of loved it. We're
going to miss him.
I had lunch with Heather yesterday and I brought along Isa. She's
getting soo big! I just can't believe how time flies! It's so cute to
watch her, she gets so excited when Heather's around! It's like she's
her aunt or something ;)
Alright well I have to go put the little one down and make sure
Justin's ok. He's taking this whole thing pretty hard. Poor baby : (
