    I loved Marj. I followed her from Myrna to Pamela to Alexandra to Vanessa. She made all four roles so different but each very memorable. She will be missed.

    Marj had such chemistry with all her fellow actors. But the Alan/Alex relationship was so special. Probably the best brother/sister relationship on a soap.

    I only new Marj from her time on GL and I loved her the moment she open her mouth. She was truly a wonderful actress and from her daughter's words she was an awesome woman & mom. I believe that when we leave this world we want at least one person to remember us and I can say Ms. Dusay has so many people that loved her and still does. May she continue to Rest In Peace.

    Debra mentioned her mother had a recurring role on Maverick, but it was actually on the 80s reboot series Bret Maverick, which also starred James Garner. Interesting that so many remember Marj from The Facts of Life. Her primetime guest work from the 60s & 70s is really good...she did a brilliant job playing McGarrett's "wife" in an episode of the original Hawaii Five O. Season 2's The Singapore File.

I loved her on GL and AMC,and felt so privileged to watch her.However,I knew little about her private life and the loss of her beloved son. Her daughter reminds me of her mother, and at the wedding on Saturday tears will be flowing from her grandmother and uncle. Also,so nice to see Ron and Nicholas share their memories of a very special lady. As for you, I was laughing and crying at my memories, your show today was superb.Michael

This tribute made me miss GL all over again.

      Absolutely marg was great but I can not help wonder and think that aw should have hired marg back in 1988 to play iris too VS Carman Duncan but kind of glad they did not think of that because then she would not have been able to play Alexandra and aw would never have written iris corectky once Donna swajeski came in as headwriter just like when Carmen Duncan was playing iris.
      As for my comments concerning Ron it was not meant to be mean maybe I was reacting too much.
      To some others comments but now looking back a bit more seeing old guiding light I think it was a huge missed opportunity when Chris bernue got sick with aids which unfortunately back then had to be hidden. At that time.
      But Ron did do a terrific job as Alan.
      But again it could have been a daytime first just like when Micheal zaslow got sick.
      But then again if you had given Alan Spaulding aids it might have effected reva too so it's a tough one.
      But would be nice with a reboot and remix if we could figure out a way to honor Chris bernue bev and marge somehow in the show using history and I did see for a little bit the Simon charecter who was supposed to have been Brandon Spaulding illigitsmates son but turned out not to be a Spaulding but who is to say there could not have been a another spaulding brother or sister and figure out a way to in a reboot tie marge or Ron to being that charecter that's now deseased as a spouse while acknowledging Alan through Chris bernue as having died in 1989 and Alexandra having died in 2008 or 2009 with bevs portraight while having Ron Raines back as that spouse to marge dusay or maybe a, spaulding brother maybe it's just me.
      But that was my point not to get caught up on what was then but a good way to right some wrongs and honors those talents because bev marge and Chris were such talents and especially Chris deserved to be honored in 1989 through his charecter and the cast. And that's why sometimes it's better for a charecter to die.
      Thats all.

    I was so excited to hear you were doing this on her! It might sound silly but Marj's portrayal of Alexandra on Guiding Light was what prompted me to get my first business degree. I was in middle school when she came back to the role and I used to have a neighbor lady tape it on VHS everyday for me. I always fast-forwarded through it first to see if my favorite Spaulding and it was always a great day when I did. When UA-cam became popular, I got to experience more of her from other awesome fans uploading classic episodes. Even now, as an adult years after the finale of the show, I come back to episodes of her when I am feeling down. My google account picture has been Alexandra for probably the last 10 years! What an absolute treasure she was!

Even if they were fighting, I could feel the emotions between Marj, Ron, Grant, Jay, and Vincent. I cried from laughter when Alex slapped Alan calling him a spoiled brat just as I felt the sadness when Philip begged Alan to stop Alex before she fled back to France. I looked up clips of All My Children to see more of Vincent and Marj playing off one another, I always thought it was so neat they got to do that in two shows! I've had a really rough life and GL was something I watched from middle school into college when it was canceled that stayed a very happy place. It just felt like, especially with the Spauldings, the love was there no matter what kind of shenanigans they got up to....and BOY did they ever have stuff going on at times! My story is not unique, there are so many of us out there who connected to GL and the actors! I don't cry watching tv but I did cry watching the last episode of GL.

    Marj Dusay did a superb job as Myrna Clegg on Capitol, a role that was originated by the legendary Carolyn Jones (best known as Morticia on 60s sitcom The Addams Family), and briefly played by Marla Adams (best known as Dina on The Young & The Restless, and we sadly lost her a few weeks ago), and Marj made the role of Myrna her own, and hopefully did Carolyn's legacy proud.
    If The Locher Room podcast is working on putting together a Tribute Episode for Marla Adams, hopefully we might see cast members who worked with her on Capitol as her time there and on other soaps would have to be acknowledged, as well as Y&R colleagues of hers being featured participants.

      I worked on that episode in the Locations Department at that time for that series. Ms. Dusay could not have been nicer. At one point we were asked to locate a shower for her so that she could properly remove a lot of make up her character had been required to wear...quickly as she was required for further filming in different make up. She thanked us all profusely for providing her with those accommodations...for doing our job. She always had a smile on her face despite the chilly winter weather occurring during which we were filming. I treasure those memories from winter 1990. And that you Mr. Andrus recall that particular episode from decades ago. Just made my day. Best wishes to you.

      Oh Joe, sincere thank you for sharing your story. As a preteen I LIVED for each week of F13 the series, as to what the next creepy, cursed antique would be. Despite the solid core cast, there were supporting actors of all calibers on that show: mainly a who’s who of Canadian thespians, but also American veteran performers, and even rock star Vanity showed up on an episode . And don’t forget a young Sarah Polley who had yet to come into her own as an Academy Award winning documentarian. Ms. Dusay was one of a handful of guest stars from the Soap World: John Bolger, played a Hollywood actor using a cursed make up case belonging to John Wilkes Booth, while “General Hospital”’s Real Andrew’s played a racer up against a car, literally possessed by Satan. @Alan Locher, even “Family”’s Gary Frank did an episode! Thank you again Joe, I have read production on the show was fast paced, almost always shot on a cold evenings, and yet despite the rigor, as per your recall Ms. Dusay handled it with gratitude and a smile (because I remember her make up in that episode, and it wasn’t pretty!) May we all know such grace in our work. Ps You made my week, may you experience similar ❤️

      Nick...if I recall, Joan Collins signed a 6-month contract but she left at the end of the third month due to scheduling conflicts (she had to tour to promote a book she'd written). Marj had just finished on AMC, and GL had just hired her old Capitol boss John Conboy as exec producer. Conboy was quick to rehire Marj as Alexandra. This would have been in December 2002. And Marj continued to play Alexandra through September 2009.

    Alan another great one but let's say as I am seeing more older guiding light I am feeling a bit conflicted especially concerning Alan Spaulding and Chris bernue and not figuring things out history wize.
    Of course Ron was terrific as well as marge but it could have been a daytime first when Chris bernue got sick just like when Micheal zaslow got sick to have had a charecter stricken with aids play out in real time and kept Chris bernue working right up until he died but I could see where the chalanges were in doing that because Alan was involved with reva when Chris got sick. As for marge she was the only one besides bev who I liked just as much as Alexandra for the rest of the shows Run but In today's context and of it could be rebooted I feel strongly like Chris bernue needs to be acknowledged and honored as having been Alan Spaulding and bev as Alexandra but marge needs to be honored either as the spouse of that missing spaulding sibling as played by Ron who would still be alive or marge should be that spaulding sister with Ron as that spouse.
    And what made me think of that was just starting to watch the early 1986 period with Simon and Alexandra before Alan with Chris bernue returned
    And, Simon turned out not to be a spaulding after all but that's an important lesson in why you should always look through a shows history and not cliff note it just like douglas marland did because you never know what you might find or ideas you can get.
    Anyway Alan loved marge as Alexandra too as much as bev and that's a good thing.
