Veteran soap actress Tonja Walker (ex-Olivia, General Hospital) has suffered a devastating family loss.

The actress shared that her beloved husband, Edward Davidson, has died from pancreatic cancer.

Walker took to her Facebook page with the news that her husband Edward Davidson passed away this morning, December 7 at 5:38 a.m. ET. Davidson had been fighting pancreatic cancer since 2015.

In addition to Walker, Davidson leaves behind daughters, Isabella, 20, and Abrianna, 19, both of Easton, Connecticut, and also his daughter Samantha of Los Angeles, and sons Alec and Evan of Cleveland.

“My husband was a force in Cleveland Business and Philanthropy for most of his life,” Walker wrote on Facebook.

“A successful entrepreneur best known for his work in Relocation and owner of the largest privately held relocation company in America at one time, Cooperative Resource Services.

“But the MOST important thing about Ed was his love for his family… and he professed the importance of the Jewish legacy to strive to Heal the World.”
