Days of our Lives fans continue to mourn the untimely passing of actor Drake Hogestyn, known for portraying the iconic character, John Black. His family released a heartfelt statement revealing his long battle with pancreatic cancer. His co-stars, including Stephen Nichols (Patch) and Deidre Hall (Marlena Evans), paid tribute to his exceptional storytelling skills and his unfaltering respect for everyone on set. Hogestyn's death certificate indicated that vomiting, dehydration, and whole-body toxicity contributed to his passing. NBC is planning an off-screen death and tribute for John Black, with a potential date around July 2025.
DOOL sees several characters with strong ties to Black, including Bo Brady (Peter Reckell) and Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso), Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) and Jennifer Devereaux (Melissa Reeves), Shane Donovan, and Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney) are slated for a return in June 2025. This timing has led fans to speculate that this comeback might coincide with the farewell to Drake Hogestyn's beloved character. The show's writers were reportedly aware of Hogestyn's terminal illness well in advance, potentially allowing for an expedited tribute.

It’s hard to believe there will be no more John Black no more hearing “doc” 😢
I know it does seem hard to believe.
Or that's a fact
Heart breaking
@@angelaschaefer5883😂😂0😂🎉😂 7:01 p8😊 PO Po 😊pp😊😅0😅😅😅😂😂😂🎉🎉😂😂😂
Yes i still expect him to show up
Such a good actor. I can't picture Marlena without John. Sounds like everyone at Days loved him and said such kind words. RIP Drake. You will be missed.
There is no actor in my opinion that is more loved and respected than Drake. His loss will sorely be missed. I am grieving for his family and his fans, me included. I watched Days of Our Lives on and off throughout the years. I did know someone who suffered and passed away from pancreatic cancer. It is a brutal disease. RIP Doug and RIP Drake!! 😢😢 Fly with the angels!!❤
Are you too young to remember Bill Hayes as Doug? He put DOOL on the cover of Time magazine and played Doug for literal decades!
@@reddish32 You are so correct!! I l loved Bill !? I meant to include him as a stellar actor and human as well as Drake. I guess I got sidetracked. Thank you for your comment because Bill Hayes was awesome and his passing is heartbreaking as well as Drake’s. ✌️💕
I still want to cry.
I am
Me too
Since he passed, I’ve been watching J&M TH-cam videos and I’m always teary eyes or crying.
Jeez, I didn't even know him and every time I see this, I tear up. It's a lovely thing to be remembered for kindnrss.
I love Drake and I’m just a fan so I can only imagine how he is with people that he really knows
My mom passed from pancreatic cancer less than a year after diagnosis. Combined with early dementia, it was heartbreaking 💔. Will miss John on Days! Huge loss!
My heart hurts so much. It’s not going to be the same with out John black . Days our life will never be the same ..
For long time Days fans losing John black is like losing a member of our family
Rest in peace 💔
I just thought about this: John's wife Isabella died from pancreatic cancer and now Drake's died from pancreatic cancer. Cancer is a horrible, evil disease - wouldn't wish it on anyone. Drake will be missed by so many. :(
Can't believe he is gone. Great person
My sympathy goes up to Mr Drake family and co stars
One of my great grandmothers died from pancreatic cancer in 1986 (just under ten years before I was born). She was 70 years of age.
Still heartbroken even after a few weeks. What an impact he made on this show. ❤️🩹❤️🩹😢❤️🩹❤️🩹
Love going out too family ❤❤❤ we will miss you
It still seems so unreal.... he was so iconic - like Joseph Mascalo/Stefano.... Bill Hayes/Doug..... and John Aniston/Victor.... except we never knew Drake was sick! He was so young and vibrant.... my heart is broken for his wife and family and those who knew him and loved him.... it's still so unbelievable.... 💔
Rest With The Angels
He played minor league baseball in Oneonta, NY, by his given name Don. 😢
I love ❤️ John Black gonna miss him alot
I don’t watch Days anymore, but I’d love to see his funeral episode. Please keep us informed when you find out the air date!
So terribly sad...prayers and hugs for his whole family and work family ⚾️🎬📺😢
Will miss him.
He was my fav soap actor...always a great guy to watch, and one of the handsomest men I have seen. It was heartbreaking to see him losing so much weight...I have had a family member die from pancreatic cancer and it is a horrible disease. RIP Drake....may angels take you to heaven...
God Bless have watched for 40 years will miss John loved him going to miss his eye expression 😢 ❤️
Going to miss him and thats a fact.
I was going to comment the same thing 😢
My mom in law died from Pancreatic cancer when she was 42. It was only 6 months after she was diagnosed. It’s a horrible cancer!
I am so sorry for your loss. My mom in law also died from pancreatic cancer. We worked together for 15 years. We took care of children with developmental disabilities. She finally made the decision to retire after over 30 years of dedication and very hard work. She was diagnosed 2 - 3 months after she retired, and lived 3 years and 4 months. She worked so hard for so long, and didn’t get to enjoy her retirement even a little. Yes, It is truly a horrible disease. I miss her so much.
love to both of you. Cancer is terrible. My Dad died from it.
@@patkeadle9741I am so very sorry for your loss.❤
Love and prayers going out to the family. Such an amazing actor..
Ok am so sorry to hear about his passing I will miss seeing him on the show my heart go out to his family.
I will miss him on the show with Deidre and the rest of his family and the days family
My condolences to the family 😢
I still can't believe it I'm heart broken , you know what your probably right about the come-backs and why there coming back
I had no clue but have wondered why he was barely ever there. Breaks my heart. So many passing so close together. Just not the same
Not buried but cremated oh man may his spirit be alive with family and friends before he will be welcomed to heaven 😢😢
m choice for me after death. Im 80
I still can't believe Drake is gone and he's a angel now in heaven looking over us RIP aka John Black
We will miss his presence on days.
😰😰rest in peace
It's so tragic he died of the same thing Isabella died of on TV!! I LOVED them together!❤❤❤
Loved him as an ACTOR HE WAS LIKE FAMILY
we all going to miss him on days
We our all going to miss drake
God bless you and your family
Today;s episode was so good w/Xander & Fiona I watched it twice. But this news still stings, 'That's a fact'. John/Drake will be sorely missed. Thx Belinda.
RIP You are and were so loved I am speechless. I am going to miss you John. May God bless you and your family. It’s not gonna be the same without you.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I don’t think I can handle watching it unfold 😢. I still can’t watch it theatrically in 2007 and certainly not in reality. Too painful. 💔. Sigh…
I thought so too in 2007 but I did and it was remarkable and true to the characters of John and Marlena ! I watched it again a few days ago it was hard because the reality is real this time but very therapeutic. The greatest super couple of all time!
@@deeeliades3426 They became my happy place a few years ago and while I have seen clips, the idea of them apart was an image that I didn’t want. The reality of it now hurts like heck. 💔
@@shionedy Yes it is very painful. Thank you for your comments.
If his last episode aired 9/9 that means it was filmed back in February. They must have known he was not coming back. I was saddened when I heard what his last air date was. I thought he’d still be on air for several months when I heard he’d died. It’s very sad.
Always a true hero 😢❤
That funeral will be so hard to watch😔
He will be missed I live in Australia I still watch days here
10 months is a long time to not have John on screen. I'm sure we'll hear some one-sided phone calls with "Doc". It will be interesting to see if they just say he's on a case or spending time with his dad or what?
R I p drake
my brother died from this and it does go fast. he was gone within a year
Also, there's one more thing, Tony and John are not cousins
In good taste to the characters and history, I really hope it's written that Marlena chooses not to remarry down the road like Alice Horton and Caroline Brady. It would be so unnecessary otherwise.
They always take too long to do the character's death. I know they tape the show for up to nine months, but come on now.
The cast and crew still need to grieve. How do you portray someone who is grieving for a fictional character when you are grieving for the actor in real life?
Hope will be back for her dad Doug’s funeral 💯
Iam' sooo heart broken,😢😢😢 I love him in everyway possible as an actor and as a human being, I have he's family in my thoughts and prayers 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗 I hope days bring hope and bo and family back sooner i love you. Drake😢😂😂😂😂
RIP, Drake.
I would love to see them bring back Roman Brady Wayne Northrop such a great actor rest in peace Drake
I thought Alison Sweeney was returning in March or April?
Bo and Hope are going to have a story maybe it will tie in with John some how
I don't know when Drake's last air date was, but how in the world is his absence from Salem going to be explained, until the Salemites learn of his passing?
last air date Sept. 9.
@@lisadelpeche3371 Thank you. Even though I've never met Mr. Hogestyn, watching him since the year my son was born and he first appeared on screen, endeared him to me to the extent that I am profoundly saddened by his passing.
I wish that we had Drake for as long as John Aniston and Bill Hayes, the latter of whom I started watching when I was 7 years old.
@@lisadelpeche3371it was with Brady and tate
@@heathertapper-gq6pk yes the last scene of the episode. John hugged brady after being released from jail while tate was there. It's very sad. I thought there would more episodes of him..
His last air date with Marlena was a few days before, I believe it was the 5th of September.
I hope they make his exit ( death / funeral ) meaningful. I wasnt happy with Victor’s. Exit story (death). He deserved much more . Lets hope Drake /John gets a better story . I hope in some way staci Greason is a part of it .
I wonder if they will reveal that Leo is John's son?🤔🤔🤔
It's been determined he isn't but if it works for a plot...who knows?
15, 000 episode, , what u are perfurerd to is Days of our lives 60 anniversary
I hope Sammy come back
"NBC soap?" Is it back on NBC? I'd love to be able to see it again.
Nope
Pancreatic cancer, that's how John's first wife Isabella died. Kind of ironic isn't it? But much sadder because it's real life.
Oh no I thought he was looking kind of sickly looking poor Marlena on the show how they going to go without John being involved in his life That's so sad He's going to be so missed and God bless his family rest in peace
I thought boo was dead ?
No more John no more victor or stefano. It’s not the samev
They've used the plane crash thing too many times. I think something that could be relatable and believable would be is if all of characters get alerts there was a mass shooting in Horton Square and John was killed as he was shopping for Doc. They then could use this as a platform to educate on mental illness related to the epidemic of mass shootings in our country. Other than Grey's Anatomy and American Horor Story I am not familiar with how many shows have done that storyline.
Days hasn't even dealt with Bill Hayes character Doug are they not going to deal with his death and John black character .The soaps used too.
Yes why is it taking so long
@@bossmanx1 Because they tape approximately six months in advance, so it takes them time to catch up to real life!
So sad. Now how will marlana handle his death?
Think marlena leaving days too
sad.
this is tragic news. Just who will Marlena find next,,
I’m sad about Drake but I’m glad John will be gone. He was so annoying.
That's not nice what you said Don't be cruel
