Longtime fans of "Days of Our Lives" may remember when Lynn Herring joined her real-life husband Wayne Northrop on the soap opera. Although they didn't have many scenes together, Herring's character of Lisanne Gardner was a memorable one. She was not only a part of a huge storyline, but some major drama in the fictional town of Salem as well. 

According to Soaps, Lisanne was a lawyer in Salem. She met her demise after a blackmail attempt against Vivian Alamain. Vivian was the adoptive mother of Nicholas "Nikki" Alamain. She was keeping the truth about who Nikki's real parents were a secret from Carly — who was Nikki's real mother. Lisanne was using this information against Vivian, and during a fight between the two, Nikki went to defend Vivian and pushed Lisanne over. This caused her to hit her head and die.  

Lisanne wasn't around Salem for too long, and that was apparently Herring's decision. According to People Pill, Herring wanted to go back to "General Hospital" and ended her contract with "Days of Our Lives."
