"I am so grateful that you went soaring into the heavens in peace – and without pain. And on 11/11 no less!

Award-winning John was best known for his role as Victor Kiriakis in the soap opera – which he had played since 1985.
He shared Jennifer with ex-wife Nancy Dow, who died in 2016, and had son Alexander with his second wife Sherry Rooney.
John walked out on Nancy in 1979 after 11 years of marriage, when Jennifer was just 10.

Despite a difficult relationship, Jennifer was reportedly ringing John every day during the height of the pandemic.
"Jen forgave her father for walking out a long time ago. But their relationship has had its ups and downs," a source said at the time.

"Jennifer didn't speak to him for ages. But since the coronavirus crisis she has been on the phone almost every day. And not just brief conversations."
They added: "It's like she has realised life is very short and she wants her relationship with John to be the best it can be. He's thrilled that they have reconciled."
