Kate O'Mara Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 30, 2014.
LONDON (AP) — British actress Kate O'Mara, best known for her role in the 1980s soap opera "Dynasty," died Sunday at the age of 74, her agent said.

Phil Belfield said O'Mara died in a nursing home in southern England after a short illness.

The actress, who began her television career in the 1960s, became a household name for playing Cassandra "Caress" Morrell, sister to Joan Collins' Alexis Colby, in "Dynasty."

In Britain she is often remembered for her role in "Triangle" — a soap opera set aboard a North Sea ferry that is often cited as the worst piece of British television.

She also appeared in the original run of British series "Doctor Who" and BBC drama "Howards' Way." In the 1990s she starred in the comedy show "Absolutely Fabulous" with Joanna Lumley.

More recently she appeared in a 2012 stage adaptation of Agatha Christie's "Death on the Nile."

She is survived by her sister, actress Belinda Carroll.

I'm sorry for your loss,we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the power beyond what is normal may be God's and not not from us. We are hard pressed in every way, but not cramped beyond movement; we are perplexed,but not absolutely with no way out; we are persecuted, but not abandoned; we are knocked down, but not destroyed. Always we endure in our body the death_dealing treatment that Jesus suffered, that the life of Jesus may also be made manifest in our body. For we who live are ever being brought face_face with death for Jesus´ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifest in our mortal flesh. So death is at work in us, but life in you. 2Corinthian 4: 7_12

Psalm 34:18
