Anthony Geary’s husband Claudio Gama: “He always told me everything he did as an actor as an artist was for his fans”

Anthony Geary, the eight-time Daytme Emmy winning star of ABC’s General Hospital, died earlier this month at age 78. He lived in Amsterdam with his husband of 30 years, Claudio Gama.

Gama took to Instagram this week with this message: “Greetings to all from Amsterdam. Today we said our last goodbyes to Tony. He is now resting up where the stars shine bright. He will always be missed. His love, his life, his art speaks for itself. Me, Max and the family would like to thank all of Tony’s friends and colleagues for the wonderful support and respect you have shown Tony.”

“To all of Tony’s fans, thank you so much for the wonderful words of support and condolences. He always told me everything he did as an actor as an artist was for his fans. Without your love and support he would have never reached the heights he did in his career. Acting was his passion as was dancing, singing, drink(ing) cola, Payday candy bars, and cats. He loved his country and his second home of Amsterdam. Thank you all. Rest in Peace our Tony. Stay warm safe and healthy.”
