FRIDAY the 13th Part 2 star Jack Marks has passed away at 86 after a congestive heart failure battle.
The actor’s wife, Linda, shared the tragic news with Marks’ co-star Bill Randolph on Monday.
“Jack had a substantial acting, career, both before and after we moved to Westbeth, twenty-odd years ago. He mostly did off-Broadway and regional theatre,” Linda shared with Randolph.
“His biggest venues were touring nationally as the father in Briton Beach Memoirs and dying heroically in the movie Friday the 13th Part 2.
“He was proudest of his starring dual performance in Athol Fugard’s play, Valley Song, which he performed on Martha’s Vineyard.
“He also relished performing the old man, Lazar Wolf, in three different out-of-town productions of Fiddler on the Roof,” the widow added.
