"It was a shock for me and our families and our friends. For more than 30 years, Tony has been my friend, my companion, my husband."
"He was a powerhouse as an actor. Shoulder to shoulder with the greats. No star burned brighter than Tony Geary. He was one of a kind."
Anthony Geary died at age 78 due to complications following a scheduled operation. He portrayed Luke Spencer on General Hospital beginning in 1978 and remained a central figure on the show for nearly 30 years. Geary earned 16 Daytime Emmy nominations and won eight awards for his work. He and Genie Francis formed the popular Luke and Laura pairing, whose 1981 wedding episode, guest-starring Elizabeth Taylor, drew 30 million viewers. Geary retired in 2015, moved to Amsterdam with Claudio Gama, and the two married in 2019. Claudio Gama described Geary as his friend, companion, and husband.
