The 37-year-old actor, whose talent and charisma shone brightly both on and off screen, was shot and killed in the early hours of Saturday morning while attempting to stop thieves from stealing his car's catalytic converter in downtown Los Angeles.
A Rising Star, Remembered for His Kindness and Talent
Wactor, who appeared in nearly 200 episodes of General Hospital between 2020 and 2022, quickly became a fan favorite for his portrayal of Brando, a motorcycle mechanic with a heart of gold. He also showcased his acting chops in other popular shows like Westworld and Criminal Minds, solidifying his place as a rising star in Hollywood.
But for those who knew him best, it was Wactor's warmth, generosity, and infectious smile that truly set him apart.
"I want them to know that he was a great man," Wactor's younger brother shared, his voice choked with emotion. "A great brother, great son. He was a loving guy. And everything you did, you did with all of his heart. It's a shame that he was taken from us. He didn't deserve that."
