No, it's not. In my country, there was this daytime soap directed at teens. One of its young actors died in a car crash and was written off by going away in a balloon (aircratf), portrayed by an extra. Where I'm getting at is that just because an actor's dead doesn't mean the characters they portrayed have to be dead too within that fictitious realm. Of course, Gloria can never again appear on the show, unless they hire a new actress, which they won't. But she's never been officially killed off. Ian Hainsworth will probably never appear again, but we don't say he's dead.
