“This post took me a couple days. I wasn’t ready to write because then it felt real. And, this shouldn’t be real. @thepatrickmuldoon and I met on a blind date. Which thankfully wasn’t a blind date at all because we were both on a tv series. Like every other girl in the world I crushed on his character Austin from Days of Our Lives. Not sure I ever disclosed that to him,” Tori started out her post.

“What I met and ultimately fell in love w/ was not just a beautiful on the outside creature but the most beautiful soul . He was special and one of a kind. The kindest most caring human w/ raddest weird sense of humor. We got each other!” she continued. “Laughed a lot ! I laughed w/him and at him and he loved it. Was multi talented. Passionate about everything he did. And, he had a knack for making others smile & brought absolute joy to everyone that was blessed to be in his orbit. A true gift.”

“We shared a love of Broncos, guitars, goofing off, playing tag, and Grease! Loved to belt out Grease. I was Sandy to his Danny! That’s us singing & dancing in 1st pic! 1995 my 22nd birthday. I also fell in love w/his sister @shanazappa . Their close brother sister relationship reminded me of my brother. His parents are amazing as well. I loved how close their family unit was! Professionally he always showed up. And, was a true hype man 4 those he cared about. He was a huge part of my formative 20’s. We went on to be good friends! Still laughing & always caring.”

“Decades later I found him to be such a true friend/hype man when I was going thru my divorce. He would call and check on me and send me the worst jokes to make me laugh. He loved when I rolled my eyes. Now I miss those stupid jokes. I last saw him past summer,” Tori wrote. “Finally met his soulmate @miriamrothbart . He said we would get along & I instantly got it! She was his perfect balance. He was just having his moment. His element. Found true love, acting & producing became his “jam” as he would say. Crushing it!”

“Don’t believe in regrets but regret not setting that dinner w/him & Miriam after that. Life is short. Set that dinner. We called each other F*ckface ????. That was us! I’m sorry to his family and the world for a beautiful light ????put out too soon. LoveU 4EVR F*ckFace ????,” she concluded.
