I'm sorry, what's so ridiculous about it? When a character that's been around for thirty years dies, it should absolutely be addressed. Soaps rely on their fans. Long-time fans want their characters treated with respect.

They couldn't have had ONE scene between Hope and Melissa? They were BEST friends when they both started on the show. Not even one line? What a rip off for LONG time viewers. Melissa was merely there to strengthen her son's role, and that's it. sad.

@bluenail03 I know, I thought the writers should have had the Hortons come back for the funeral.

[bluenail03]

BTW - does anyone know why John Clarke refused to even make a cameo return for Mickey's death? Mickey's #02, #03, and #04 were horrific.

[bluenail03]

@lornajenkins97 Gotcha. IMO, there should have had Mickey's siblings return (well, Addie is dead, so she couldn't). I am going to assume that Tom Jr. is dead, but what about Bill & Marie? They returned for Tom & Alice's deaths. Oh well....

[lornajenkins97]

@bluenail03 She had some help, but very little, from a man named Hank who lived on the farm with her and helped run it. When Mickey who called himself Marty Hanson wondered upon the farm (in which he was suffering amnesia), she let him stay on the farm with her by paying for his room and board by working on the farm.

[bluenail03]

@lornajenkins97 Hmmm. That is odd. How could a (nearly) crippled Maggie be able to run a farm?

[lornajenkins97]

@bluenail03 When Maggie first appeared on the show Maggie's parents were not alive, because they were killed in a car accident, which left her unable to walk. So when she came on the show she couldn't walk and her parents were already dead.

[bluenail03]

Actually, Maggie's mother & father WERE alive when Maggie first appeared on the show. MAJOR mistake on the writer's part.

@furrypurrylove that was when Mickey had that fling with that wack job Bonnie, Mimi's mom. As much as I love Judi Evans, I couldn't look at her as anyone but Adrienne, or Paulina from AW.

[tmwalkerm]

@furrypurrylove Maggie was "killed" by the Salem Stalker, not Mickey.

A tear came to my eye when I saw Maggie wearing the "red shoes" Mickey gave her.
