When William deVry (Julian) said his goodbyes as he left GENERAL HOSPITAL, he spread the love all over Twitter, tagging his friends and co-stars left and right to thank them for the wonderful years that they spent together. And naturally, his friends and co-stars shared the love right back!

Many GH stars responded to deVry on Twitter to wish him well and express how much they were going to miss him around the set. Well, aside from James Patrick Stuart (Valentin), who as followers of both actors on social media know, shares a hilariously snarky back-and-forth with his pal. “I would have totally shown up,” Stuart joked of deVry’s last day on set. “But you know how bad traffic is on Wednesdays.” And when someone pointed out what day it actually was, the actor responded, “Oh wait… today’s Thursday?! Oh, shoot. Sorry, man.”

Clearly, fans aren’t the only ones who are going to miss having deVry around Port Charles playing the complicated Julian Jerome as he has for the past seven years.

Browse through the gallery below to see the heartfelt messages that deVry’s friends shared.

"Much love back to you, my hot sexy partner who helped make our senior sex the hottest thing for three years straight. Nobody can throw this 60-year-old against a wall like you did, gather a freaking #Julexisarmy like we did, and live to tell about it. #julexis made ageism stupid and experience sick."

"It’s always been a pleasure, Wil! Congrats on a fantastic run! You unknowingly motivated me to kick it up in the gym for the past seven years — I was all like, 'I’ve got an excuse, I’m almost 40!' Then you had a shirtless scene and I was like, 'WTH?! Well, there goes my excuse!' 😢😂"
