Today brings heartbreaking news for the soap opera world as The Young and the Restless and Days of Our Lives each mourn the loss of a cherished member of their families.
Pamela Bach Hasselhoff, best known to Y&R fans for originating the role of Mari Jo Mason, has sadly passed away at the age of 62. Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Pamela started her career as a model before making her way to Hollywood. She gained recognition through roles in T.J. Hooker, Cheers, and The Fall Guy before landing her part in Y&R in 1994. Although her time in Genoa City was short-lived, longtime viewers fondly remember her contribution to the show.
Tragically, Pamela passed away on March 5th from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to TMZ. Law enforcement discovered her during a wellness check at her home. Her ex-husband, David Hasselhoff, who played Dr. Snapper Foster on Y&R, confirmed the devastating news. In a heartfelt statement, he expressed his family’s deep sorrow and gratitude for the support they have received during this difficult time.
Meanwhile, over at Days of Our Lives, fans are also grieving the loss of Martin Davich, a legendary composer who played a key role in shaping the show’s musical legacy in the 1980s and ’90s. Susan Seaforth Hayes shared the sad news on Instagram, remembering him as Days’ very own “Piano Man.” His contributions to the soap opera world will never be forgotten.
Both Y&R and Days have lost beloved members, leaving a deep impact on their fans and colleagues. As the soap community mourns these losses, heartfelt condolences pour in for the families and loved ones of Pamela and Martin.
