“So sorry to post the very sad news of my father’s passing tonight,” Brown wrote.”He died peacefully and was surrounded by his family and loved so much by us and so many others.”

Friends and co-stars of Allan have come to eulogize and pay tribute to the man who brought joy to so many.

Ian Ziering, who played Allan’s on-screen son on 90210, shared a photo of the two smiling.

“So sad to hear we’ve lost another 90210 classmate,” he wrote. “I had the pleasure of working with Jed Allan from 94 to 99. He played Rush Sanders, Steve’s father. Such a great guy to work with, he will be missed.”

A. Martinez, Allan’s co-star on Santa Barbara, had this to say about the actor’s passing.

“Jed was a pro’s pro in every sense, and an inspired artist in the moments when the red lights came on — he was fearless, and his work moved millions. I first met him in the early seventies, when his son Mitch Brown and I were cast mates on the TV series, The Cowboys,” wrote Martinez. “With his effervescent wife Toby at his side, he quietly asked me to keep a watchful eye out for Mitch, as it was his first gig. Jed was already a star by then, and he was as warm and articulate and charming as anyone I’d ever met.”

“Condolences now to their wonderful sons, and gratitude to Jed for his unerring joy in the telling of stories, and for offering always the embrace of his massive heart.”
