Meeting Michael Learned

[nedandres]

Today is the 30th anniversary of my meeting Michael Learned. She was in Reading, PA, to appear in the play LOVE LETTERS with Gavin MacLeod, a benefit for the Caron Foundation, which is near and dear to Michael’s heart because it helped her to conquer her own addiction. It was less than a month before A WALTON THANKSGIVING REUNION would air on CBS, and she told me a bit about what to expect. Since then we have written back and forth and now occasionally send text messages. I am grateful to have Michael as a friend.

What a lovely memory. I've been lucky enough to meet her twice. She's a beautiful person. 💗
