Ivan Quashigah mourns the passing of Vincent McCauley
Ivan Quashigah, the producer of ‘Things We Do For Love,’ has expressed sadness following the death of Vincent McCauley, the well-known actor in the series.
In a post on Instagram, the producer said despite being aware of McCauley’s health challenges, he was unaware of the severity of his illness.
“Vincent! What do I do with the new scripts? This cuts really deep! While shooting YOLO 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 personally apologize. 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”.
“Yesterday, I made a mental note to call to discuss the new project and to find out if you were up for it. I failed to call. Hmmm. Just last year we lost your screen cousin in ‘Things we do for love’ Marleen (Lois) and your boss in Inspector Bediako – Ekow Blankson. Now you?. 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 posted.

Rivals on set “Pusher & Max” since 1999 but cool guys off set. Thank you for being a part of the family and paying your dues well. Rest in perfect peace brother🙏”.
