Virgin River fans will recall his character Preacher had a major storyline in the finale as he and Paige Lassiter (played by Lexa Doig) were finally safe.
After her brother-in-law, Vince (Steve Bacic) threatened her son’s life, Paige was willing to trade herself for son Christopher (Chase Petriw) but Preacher interrupted the deal and knocked Vince out before he could kill Paige.
Virgin River seasons 1-4 are available to stream on Netflix.
