Recently we reported of the passing of Roscoe Born who died at the age of 69. Now, his family has revealed the cause of death which was suicide. They noted, “Roscoe has long struggled with bipolar disorder, a shadow that he succumbed to when he took his own life on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. We are grateful for the outpouring of kind words and memories. We only wish that Roscoe could have seen how much people still carry his daytime villains in their hearts. May his death remind us of the importance of opening up conversations around mental illness. May those who need help seek it. May those who seek help receive it. And may it serve them.”
The family’s statement was posted on Facebook. Born is known for his work on soap operas such as; One Life to Live, Passions, Santa Barbara, The Young and the Restless and All My Children.
