'Roseanne' Pays Tribute to Actor Glenn Quinn, Who Died at Age 32
They haven't forgotten Mark.
The April 10 episode of "Roseanne" revival Season 10 followed Becky Conner (Lecy Goranson) learning she has a slim-to-none chance of getting pregnant. She told sister Darlene (Sara Gilbert) that she and husband Mark (Glenn Quinn) had been trying to get pregnant before he died, and she hasn't been able to find anyone else as good as him.
The show dedicated the episode to Glenn Quinn, who played Becky's boyfriend and then husband on the show from 1990 to 1997. (The Irish actor also had a devoted fan base as Doyle from "Angel.") Glenn died from an accidental heroin overdose in December 2002. He was 32.
Here's the tribute card the show aired for Glenn:
Michael Fishman (D.J. Conner) also shared a photo and tribute from Glenn Quinn's gravesite:
Glenn and family are frequently on my mind. We put his picture in the hallway we pass each day.
After my #Roseanne press tour today drove down and visited him.
As long as @RoseanneOnABC is on Glenn Quinn is part of it.
I'll always honor him and the Quinn family in my work pic.twitter.com/0JgsB2L1Fe

"Roseanne" continues to keep Mark on the show in its own way:
As said before by many, the late Glenn Quinn (who played Mark in seasons 3-9), has not been forgotten in season 10. In addition to Darlene's son being named after his uncle, a photograph of Glenn is prominently displayed in the Conner's living room. #Roseannepic.twitter.com/1Qaxw1rG3w

Gone far too soon. RIP, Glenn Quinn.
