Phil Carey is VERY much alive; he's just no longer on the show because he got reduced to recurring role/off contract, and he didn't want to settle for that.
Asa should not have been killed off until Phil died in real life.
TPTB did not want to renew Phil's contact; they were going to have him on recurring status/off contract, but Phil wanted to stay on-contract.
We learned thursday the death of his character asa buchanan who died in real life of heart faliure at aged 82. We look back at asa's long life with promos, emotional tribute. Now Bo and Clint is remembering while Vicki is gone away from llanview as she left to go on a plane. But, we'll almost gonna missed her that's what Erika Slezak cares about.
They should have worked something out for him to stay! It's foolish that CJ was not brought back. I thought the funeral bit! They should have shown a full funeral, with eulogy and people speaking, and Collage from when he started in '79, not just a few not-that-long-ago memories. They did a better job with Alan Quartermaine's funeral than Asa's, and Alan's wasn't that great, either.
is there rumor asa is coming back..what a con that would be...he gonna get b.e. back from dorian that would be cool.

This is almost as sad as when Roger Howarth left the show.

Asa's funeral was good except that the coffin did not have an American flag on it. Asa was a veteran of WWII.

What was the name of the song and who does it?

I agree. They could have had Asa out of business and mentioned from time to time.

Very nice job, I still can't believe TIIC killed him off, Llanview will never ever be the same, but this video does him justice.
