I was Sooooo shocked when I heard about Billy Miller. Billy was A talented actor. He was good in the young and the restless, General hospital soaps and the movie where he drowned his girl friend and his girlfriend father didn´t rest until he was brought to Justice. Billy Miller was also very handsome with a beautiful smile very dapper. Billy Miller will be MISSED. GONE TOO SOON!My Confolences to his Family, Friends and FansRest in Billy Miller

I remember you Billy; from Season 2 Episode 1 of the TV show Justified.

I found the most memorable scene to be when you pulled a gun out on Deputy US Marshal Raylan Givens ( played by Timothy Olyphant) after he hadvjust soaked you down in gasoline at the Gas Station after kidnapping Loretta.

I had not watched soaps for years. They just weren't my thing. I was flipping thru channels and saw this good looking guy in hospital bed. Paused for second and found he had lost his memory. I was hooked. I watched GH faithfully until he left. I left it too. Continued to follow him to see what he was doing. My heart broke when I heard the news. What a loss.

Liana Campos

June 24, 2024

When he first made his debut on GH, I wasn't a fan. But over time I grew to love his character & I began to adore him. I was saddened that he left GH. Always hoped he'd come back. When I found out he passed I couldn't help but cry. That broke my heart. It's nearly been a year but I hope he has now found peace. My heart goes out to everyone who knew & loved him. I'm so deeply sorry for the loss you have suffered. After watching interviews & behind the scenes videos, he honestly seemed like a wonderful & kind man. The world has been robbed of his presence. Rest in Peace Billy. We miss you.

I was watching Young and the Restless when I first saw him, I thought he is gonna go far, what a great actor and so handsome.
Then I watched G H and he came on there. Well when he left the show, I left it too. He was such a handsome man and always had a smile to end all smiles. He always had a " twinkle" in his eyes. I so wish I could've talked with him about suicide , My son died from it at age 32. It hurts the family but you don't care at that point. You just want to end your suffering and leave this world. I'm so sorry for Mom. I know first hand how you feel like your heart has been ripped out.
I'm sorry I rattled on, but suicide hurts the family you have left behind. We are left wondering what could we ha e done differe t? Well I'm gonna end it here and give thanks and love to Billy Miller! We will never forget you.
One of your greatest fans,

He was not only very handsome, but a gifted actor as well. I was hoping he would come back to General Hospital and reprise his role as Drew Cain. The show hasn´t been the same since he left in 2019. I couldn´t believe it when I read the news that he had passed away. You´re going to be forever missed Billy Miller.

My first memory of Billy Miller was when he played Richie Novak, the brother to Melissa Claire Egan's character, Annie Novak Lavery, on AMC...I just knew that he'd do well in his career. He was funny then, and was a favorite of mine when he joined Y&R, as Billy Abbott. He was one of the best Billy Abbott's that Y&R ever had!
