Andrea Moar (Schenck) Dead AT 55; Former 'All My Children' Actress Drowns In Mexico

Former ALL MY CHILDREN actress Andrea Moar Schenck, who played Carrie Sanders Tyler on the soap in the early 1980s, drowned while vacationing in Mexico on January 13. She was 55.

Schenck was relaxing in the water off the coast of Cancun and died while she and her husband, Dr. Carlos Schenck, were on their annual vacation having just celebrated his birthday a day earlier.

According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Schenck was floating on her back not far from shore near the couple's vacation resort, "gazing at the sun, doing what she liked best" when she went under, her husband said Friday. "She loved the ocean."

Schenck's run on ALL MY CHILDREN included Carrie's marriage to Chuck Tyler (Richard Van Fleet).
