The sudden death of the loved ones is the worst hell that can fall on you. It’s almost unbearable for a person to see a person pass away whom they saw alive a moment ago. Today we are with the story of such an actress who was moved by an unexpected death of a venerable friend.
Losing the on-screen Husband:
American actors duo Aida Turturro and James Gandolfini were seen as husband and wife in a Broadway revival of “A Streetcar Named Desire” in 1992. Even after the series, the actors stayed in contact and built a good friendship.
James became one of the trusted friends for Aida. Therefore, when James encouraged her to audition for The Sopranos, she went for the audition and was cast as the sister of James' character, Tony Soprano, in the series.

She had admitted that not only her but whoever knew him couldn't resist liking him. However, this good friend of her, James, left the world in 2013 due to a heart attack. She shared about his compassionate nature and how his sudden death moved her in an interview with hollywoodlife.com in July 2013. She said,
Well you know, everybody has a different memory because they have a different relationship. Whether it’s from television or individually. I think that to me, personally, I have a lot of love for him – I have my own memories. The beautiful thing is, he had a very, very, huge incredible soul and it just went on forever. His love & his generosity is why he had a church full of women AND men crying. It was a great loss – not because of his acting – I mean he was a great actor of course – but really because he was a generous and beautiful entity & I’ve known him since 1992 & I still kind of can’t comprehend it.
I think it’s a process. I think at first you’re hit with it and you can’t believe it & then you slowly process it. Sometimes for people it takes Awhile to process – you turn around & your like ‘oh my god is he not here anymore?’ Everybody’s processing it in their own way – nobody’s happy about it & it’s not easy for anyone.
