General Hospital (GH) Spoilers: These GH Actors Will Sadly Never Come Back From The Grave

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal they say nothing is sure in life but death and taxes, and they may be right. But in our world, nothing is sure by death, taxes, and General Hospital.

Here are just a few of the beloved GH actors we know we’ll never see again.

Longtime viewers like to think of today’s character of Amy Driscoll (Risa Dorken) as carrying the former Amy’s torch and continuing to be the hospital gossip queen.
