Robert Kelker-Kelly, known for “Days of Our Lives” and “Another World,” dies on October 3 at his home in Missouri. Multiple reports say his final hours involved complaints of chest pain, including pain in an arm/left arm, after arriving home from the airport with his wife. One account adds that he does not seek immediate medical care and is later found unresponsive.
Authorities cited across outlets link the death to heart disease. Deadline reports the medical examiner in St. Charles, Missouri rules the cause as arteriosclerotic heart disease, also referred to as coronary artery disease, and the manner of death as natural. Other outlets similarly describe death from heart disease and specify the age as 62.
Coverage largely agrees on the broad timeline—airport arrival, onset of chest/arm pain, being found unresponsive, and subsequent death—and the heart-related cause. Outlets differ mainly in how much they focus on the personal, last-hours detail versus the medical terminology and official determination.
