...2007. Is this correct to you? Frances Reid has been on Days of Our Lives since Day One on November 8, 1965. I believe her last appearance was Christmas 2007. She could not appear this Thanksgiving and Christmas 2008. This makes her one of the longest running actresses in the same role, 42 years + 47 days? She is currently 94. Can you verify this too as correct? (I believe Helen Wagner holds the record on "As the World Turns").
