THE ARIZONA REPUBLIC OBITUARIES FRIDAY, JULY 25, 2008 B9 Larry Haines, staple of soaps, Broadway ASSOCIATED PRESS DELRAY BEACH, Fla. Larry Haines, a two-time Daytime Emmy winner for his 35-year role on the soap opera Search for Tomorrow, has died. He was 89. Haines, who also had a successful career on Broadway, died July 17 at a Delray Beach hospital where he had been admitted a week earlier, attorney and friend Tom Dachelet said Wednesday. The actor played Stu Bergman on Search for almost the show's entire run from 1951 to 1986, missing only the first two months.

Stu was the neighbor and best friend of Joanne Gardner Barron, later Joanne Tourneur, the character at the center of most of the show's plot lines over the years. She was played by Mary Stuart for the entire 35 years. The soap opera, which was first on CBS, later on NBC, was the longest-running daytime drama on television when its last episode aired in December 1986. Haines credited the longtime appeal of the show to "basically believable characters that people kind of took to." In an interview at the time, he said he felt that quality was lost in its final years as more outlandish plot developments were written. "Soap opera is a story," he said.

"It should be a continuing story, rather than disoriented, meaningless adventures." Haines won Daytime Emmys for his role in 1976 and 1981, and in 1985 was precredit for," he in 1967.
