Dear Loyal Fan,

I would like to thank you all for your continued support over the many years of my career, some of you have seen me in comedies, action and adventure, drama, and now soaps. Let me tell you, this is the hardest work in show business. We (actors) get so much fan mail, cards, gifts, etc. sometimes we can't answer them all in a timely manner, on behalf of all those actors out there; I would like to say "sorry". Some of you have expressed that you like the way I portray "T.C. Russell" as a loving father, a good friend, and devoted husband", this something that "NBC/Passions" has gone to great lengths to bring out, and I applaud them for their efforts. There isn't a day that I don't enjoy working with these talented, professional, funny actors, actresses and crew. My grandfather always said "if you like what you see, tell somebody". You the fans have a voice, tell the producers what you like. Trust me, they listen. Well it is time for me to go to work.

Peace to you and yours,

Rodney Van Johnson
