Jennifer Robyn Bernard, widely recognized for her portrayal of Terry Brock on General Hospital, has sadly passed away. A well-known figure to soap opera enthusiasts during the 1980s, Bernard appeared in 145 episodes of the iconic series from 1984 to 1990, leaving a lasting impact on viewers who remember her compelling performances.
Authorities confirmed that Bernard’s body was discovered earlier this week in San Jacinto, California. Law enforcement responded to a report concerning an unattended death on Tuesday, and her identity was verified through fingerprint records. An autopsy is planned by the Riverside County Coroner’s Office, but the official cause of death remains undisclosed.
Beyond her significant role on General Hospital, Bernard also took on the role of a psychologist in the 2002 film Voices from the High School. Although she largely stepped away from acting following her daytime TV career, she remained a cherished figure among fans and those who worked alongside her.
Her passing comes shortly after the General Hospital community was already grieving the loss of another beloved star, Jackie Zeman, known for her role as Bobbie Spencer.
