One of Alan Thicke’s final public appearances was a reunion with his “Growing Pains” co-stars last month in Bloomingdale.

Thicke, who died Tuesday at the age of 69, reunited with Tracey Gold and Jeremy Miller at RewindCon, an event that featured stars from popular ’80s and ’90s sitcoms and soap operas.

Thicke met fans, signed autographs and participated in the Nov. 12 “Seaver Fever” panel, a nod to his role as Dr. Jason Seaver on “Growing Pains” from 1985-92.

Besides “Growing Pains,” Thicke also starred in various films and TV movies and series, including a 2014 show about his family, “Unusually Thicke.”

Carleen Donovan, the publicist for Thicke’s son Robin, said Alan Thicke died of a heart attack in the Los Angeles area.
