Expressing his grief on Instagram, Mr Quashigah shared that despite being aware of McCauley’s health challenges, he was unaware of the severity of his illness.

He mentioned that the actor, known for his cheerful demeanor, displayed no apparent signs of distress.

Recalling a recent incident during the filming of ‘Yolo Season 7’, “You had to miss the filming of some scenes and I was left to find a way out. The gentleman you were, you made it a point to come to the office to apologize personally,” Mr. Quashigah stated.

“Unfortunately, I did not notice the severity of your condition because as usual, you gave us your signature handshake that almost removed our arms from our bodies,” he further added.

The filmmaker disclosed his intention to reach out to McCauley the day to discuss a potential new project and check on his well-being, only to be met with the devastating news of his passing.

In reflection, Mr. Quashigah lamented the recent losses including McCauley’s on-screen cousin in “Things We Do for Love,” Marleen (Lois), and Ekow Blankson, his boss in “Inspector Bediako.”

“Hmmm. Vincent! What do I do with the new scripts? This cuts deep!… Lord, teach us how to number our days and to recognize how few they are and help us to spend them as we should. Your word says in all things we should give thanks, but this really, really hurts. Rest in Peace Nephew,” Ivan Quashigah noted.
