General Hospital (GH) spoilers has some sad news to report about a popular GH star. Elizabeth Hendrickson, who portrays DA Margaux Dawson on the ABC soap, recently shared with her fans that she lost her beloved dog, named Loch Ness.
Loch Ness, who Elizabeth called “Nessie,” died at the age of 16 after spending some quality time that morning with her humans. Elizabeth took to Instagram to announce Nessie’s passing to her followers, and to pay her a proper tribute. She posted several photos of Nessie, some as a puppy and some during her older years, and it certainly looks like Nessie had a great life.
Elizabeth also had some touching words to accompany her photos: “Before it was time to say good bye to Loch Ness we gave her a beautiful morning with all of those who love her as much as I have. She lived an INCREDIBLE 16 years. I rescued her from the streets of the Dominican Republic when she was just a few months old but really she rescued me.”
Elizabeth ended with some touching words about her beloved fur baby: “She will always be my first baby, my longest relationship, and my most loyal friend. As hard as today was, I know she will be running wild again soon, chasing squirrels, motorcycles, and skateboards. You were truly one of a kind, Nessie.”
Since posting her tribute to Nessie, Elizabeth has received an outpouring of support from her followers. Several fellow soap stars offered their condolences as well, including Briana Nicole Henry (Jordan Ashford on GH), who said “What a beauty, I’m sorry friend.” And Lauralee Bell (Christine Williams on Y&R) said “The hardest! Sending love.”
Eden Riegel (Bianca Montgomery, AMC) had some sweet words for Elizabeth as well: “Oh Lizzie, I’m so sorry you had to say goodbye to sweet Nessie. She had the best life a dog could ever hope for with you. I’m so sorry she’s gone. Sending you all my love.”
