Jackie Z. What an awesome lady. So sweet. She was one of the veterans that, when I came on [in 1991], welcomed me with open arms. For that, I’ll always be grateful… I never saw her in a bad mood despite life’s challenges. Her energy was incredible. She always asked how I was and what was happening in my life. Always made time. We had Malibu in common; anytime someone mentioned Malibu, I would think of her. She lived out there, and I would surf there a lot, so we would talk about that… Thank you, Jackie, for your example. Legend. So sweet and kind. My prayers are with your family.”</p>

<p>“One thing that has always been hard for me is processing the idea [that] people that I love and have been close to in my life will eventually sail on heaven’s highway,” says the Emmy winner, once Lucky on <em>General Hospital</em>. “A lot of people have asked me, ‘What was Jackie like?’ Jackie was one of the most kind, loving and wonderful humans that I’ve been ever so lucky to call a friend and colleague. I had many dinners over the years outside of work with her and my dear friend, Kin Shriner (Scotty). I have to say Jacklyn would light up a room or stage the moment she stepped on it or into it. One thing that I personally remember is how she always would say my name…with such meaning accompanied with a beautiful smile, and I never felt worthy of that emphasis. I loved everything about you Jackie, your laugh, your hugs, and I loved playing your nephew… I know you’re lighting up heaven’s stage and keeping everyone up there in stitches!”</p>

<p>“This is a great loss. I had been a fan of Jackie’s since I was a girl watching her play Lana on <em>One Life to Live</em>,” Instagrammed the Emmy winner who originated the role of Nina on <em>General Hospital</em>. “She was gritty, sexy, dark and complex (Lana). I wanted to do what she was doing (Jackie). Then she of course came to <em>General Hospital.</em> I was mesmerized by her there. Jackie was so sweet and caring but tough. Tough in the greatest way. I told her I had been a fan since Lana and she laughed and told me some stories. I don’t think she knew I was a super fan. I kept it to myself. Ha! I didn’t want to freak her out. My love goes out to her family. My love also goes out to her <em>General Hospital</em> family, who I consider my family still. [The show] has had some significant loss in the last year. It’s hard. It takes a toll. To lose people you love so much, ya know? I care and love you guys at <em>General Hospital</em> and am sending you love. Healing love. It was my pleasure to know this woman and call her a peer. Little did I know as I watched her tear it up on a daily basis on <em>One Life to Live</em> that I would one day share a stage with her. What an honor indeed.”</p>

<p>“What a beautiful soul that will be missed here on earth. Jackie was one of my first mentors at <em>General Hospital</em>,” said the Emmy winner. “She was a warm woman with a witty sense of humor. She embraced life. Sad day.”</p>

<p>“Jackie was the first person I spoke to when I walked on set to film my very first scene. I was so nervous,” the Emmy nominee recalled, “but she soothed me with hugs as she introduced herself. Thank you for all that you were to me and so many. Love you now and forever. My condolences to her beautiful family.”</p>

<p>Understandably, the Emmy winner who’s played Bobbie’s daughter since 2005 found herself initially at a loss for words. On Twitter, she shared a number of spectacular clips of Zeman in action, each of them accompanied by a broken-heart emoji. Later, Wright Instagrammed that “I’m struggling to wrap my head around this. I’m so grateful to have shared so many years with this beautiful woman. Jackie told the best stories. She had an <em>incredible</em> spirit, and she lived such an amazing life. She loved working on <em>General Hospital</em>. She adored her daughters and lit up when talking about her grandchildren. Saying she will be missed is an understatement. Thank you, Jackie, for sharing your heart and soul with all of us. Much love to Cassidy and Lacey.”</p>

<p>Wrapping his head around the “bad loss” of his dear friend and longtime leading lady, Shriner shared a video in which he was “sitting at the Smoke House, Jackie’s favorite restaurant, Jackie’s booth, so… here’s lookin’ at you, Jackie.” We’ll join him in raising a glass to her. “Jackie was a tremendous force,” he added, “so I will miss her.”</p>

<p>“For 40 years, I was fortunate enough to play Jackie Zeman’s big brother on <em>General Hospital</em>,” the Emmy winner <a href="https://tvline.com/2023/05/11/jackie-zeman-dies-anthony-geary-tribute-general-hospital/" target="_blank">told our sister site TVLine</a>. “In all those years, I never heard her utter one disparaging word about any actor, crew member, or co-worker. In fact, I never heard Jackie express an unkind word about anyone, ever. In a highly competitive profession where ego, feelings and emotions are bread and butter, I’ve found this quality to be extremely rare. I expect it will be even more rare now that dear Jackie is gone. She was quite simply one of the kindest, sweetest people I have ever known. I will miss her laugh and the deep, soulful look in her eyes whenever she expressed the love and pride she had in her two lovely daughters. Tonight, l already miss her and feel a powerful ache where Jackie’s smile used to be.”</p>
