Actor Edward Mallory, 76, who played Dr. Bill Horton on NBC's Days of Our Lives for 14 years, died last Wednesday after a long illness. He was a regular fixture on the NBC soap from 1966 to 1980. His career also involved directing daytime serials as well as writing, directing and producing documentaries for The History Channel and A&E Network, reports Ocala.com. Mallory, who was born in Cumberland, Maryland, joined the Frostburg State faculty as artist-in-residence in 2004. There, he taught writing, acting and directing and oversaw student-made documentary films. As Horton, Mallory portrayed an underdog surgeon who longed for and eventually married his brother's wife after years of keeping secret that he had fathered her son.

it is sad but i know he is in a better place. i started watching days of our lives when i was about 11 in fourth grade- that was ten years ago. the only soaps i've really ever watched are days of our lives and passions. he will be greatly missed.
