RIP

Too sad. He was great as Tony Lord. I didn’t know about Courtney. Does anybody know when she passed and why?

My FIRST soap opera love who I will never forget. Rest in peace with Jacquie now.

I also heard he was closeted.

I loved Pat & Tony! they were one of my favorite couples on OLTL!

Very sad news. I loved him as Tony on OLTL. May he rest in peace.

This is so bittersweet. In one way it was wonderful going down memory lane– but in another it is sad seeing that clip honoring soaps knowing how few are now left. And now I am at age that I am started to see the passing of so many actors who played the beloved characters I grew up watching. Now all my children, remember we only have one life to live, so let us make all the days of our lives count. So as the world turns at the edge of night, in the dark shadows as we search for tomorrow,… Read more »

Jackie Courtney died in December 2010. Yes, she did pass away of skin cancer.

Back in the 70s AW and DOOLs featured my favorite soap couples: Days had Doug and Julie, and AW had Steve and Alice. On AW, Rachel(Robin Strasser, Vicki Wyndam) was the bad girl who occasionally broke them up and got pregnant by Steve…son was Jaime…Steve, Alice and Rachel was a long drawn out but exciting triangle that lasted for years…and it didnt matter to most if Steve ended up with either lady…they were that good. Rachel wasnt an evil villain…she was a bad girl looking for ways to climb the social ladder…ironically Steven came from a poor background but was… Read more »

This is terribly sad. He, along with the fabulous Jacquie and wonderful Robin (Strasser; the original Rachel Davis Matthews Clark), set “Another World” on fire through the late 1960s through early/mid-1970s. I promptly dumped “Another World” when he was fired and followed him to “One Life to Live.” Having Jacquie join the cast a few months later was pure elation! Despite his reputation, this man had true star quality. While some may question his acting ability (personally, I though he was quite good — his fiery, early 1976 confrontation scene with Victor Lord — then played by Shepperd Strudwick —… Read more »

Yes I was a GREAT fan of Steve and Alice!!! I also knew him as Tony Lord
He was a great actor and will be remembered always!

Wow! What a talent GEORGE was! Being a viewer of OLTL since about year 2 of the show I certainly remember “Tony and Pat”! I was bummed when their storyline came to a close. I had read that Jackie Courtney had passed away a few years ago. When I read Mr. Reinholt’s obituary in my local paper yesterday I had no idea he love a mere 3 miles from me, that he was born in Philadelphia AND was teaching in a town about the same distance away!
RIP!!

They were magic together and when they tried to recast them both it never really worked for me. This scene I vaguely remember though I was very young we use to watch soaps in the summer and prayed we would have bad weather so we could stay home from school. RIP dear man you are now once again with your leading lady!

George was one of a kind, I remember him entering “One Life” as a “playboy” before Jacquie was hired and they gave him a girlfriend from Vietnam, “Mai Ling” and he had some very naughty scenes with the late Nancy Pinkerton as Dorian (calling her character “fridgid”…seemed adlibbed too!) and very touching scenes with the late and luminous Dorrie Kavanaugh as Cathy Craig who’s character was afraid to make love to “Tony,” to be intimate again after her baby Meagen died. Mr. Reinholt and Ms. Courtney are forever linked and I find their presence including the other actors noted to… Read more »

George Reinholt and I have been friends for several years….I loved him dearly….I shall miss him so very much….he fought a valiant fight against the cancer…and always said he was going to “beat this cancer”……but alas, he lost….he fought so hard the last 2 years….I love you George, and miss you so much….and I still look for your sweet letters in my mail box..I just can’t believe you are gone…….I can’t wait until I can see you again…..

George was a hoot! I miss him very much, Thanks for all the kind words, George and I had a habit of pulling jokes on each other. The best one was when my Wife and I put the add in the suncoast Newspaper, here in Florida, describing George as a Male Escort, well I sure as hell didn’t expect all the publisity. Sally Jessie Rafael, and Howard Stern and Robin, Howard called George early in the Morning, questioning him and tiring to trip him up about the Male escort, episode, but George had great Talent and went nose to nose,… Read more »

George told me that when he passed, his tombstone should reed, ” here lies George Reinholt, who had one life to live and now has gone to another World” we miss ya George RIP
