Actress Martha Byrne, who played the role of Hubbard’s daughter, Lily also made a post on Instagram talking about her time with the late actress as well as about how much she is feeling about this loss.

“As many of you are finding out this morning, Elizabeth Hubbard passed away. First and foremost I want everyone to know I made sure she was aware of how much everyone loved her. I would share your comments from social media, videos, and your fond memories of her as Lucinda, and Althea, every time I saw her. She loved the audience and fought like HELL to bring truth and honesty to her performances,” Byrne wrote.

She wrote about her personal love for the actress saying, “On a personal level there aren’t words to describe how much she meant to me. Only feelings, override words in so many cases when it comes to love. I will be sharing more so we can all grieve together but here are our last words together only just a few days ago. I said, ‘Liz, do you know how much you have done for me?’ She said, ‘You can do more.’ Because of what she has done for me over the last 38 years, the strength and fearless nature in how she lived her life, she is right, I can AND WILL do more. I look forward to sharing more about her life, which encompasses so much more than her INCREDIBLE career on daytime television. She also said to me when I told her how much the fans loved her…’I tried.’ She more than tried. She left it all on the screen. I’ll miss her every day but grateful the universe gifted me with such a force of nature, of which the world will not see the likes of again. .”
