'Dallas' actress Linda Gray says there hasn't a day passed since her co-star Larry Hagman died that she hasn't missed him in her life. Hagman lost his battle with cancer at the age of 81 in November and Gray, who has played his character JR Ewing's wife Sue Ellen since the late 1970s, is still saddened by her close friend's death, reported People magazine. "Every day I miss him but I had a little chat with him this morning, it made me feel better," she said. Gray went to see Hagman on several occasions in the last few weeks of his life when he was in the Medical City Dallas Hospital in Dallas. The 72-year-old actress' co-star knew he didn't have long to go when he spoke with her. "He said, 'I've got two weeks to live!' We went, 'What are you talking about? Come on, we've got a scene on Monday ... you're not going anywhere. That was the last time we saw him. He didn't do sad. He wanted everything to be glorious. He wasn't afraid of dying," she added.
