I met John Ritter once back in 2001. He was very nice and kind. He visited Emerson College in March of that year while he was on a break from a play he was doing with Henry Winkler in New York at the time. After he did his speech in front of Emerson alumni and students, I met him at the reception the college held for him. I managed to talk to him, despite how nervous I was about meeting him. After all, I grew up watching him on TV when he was starring in "Three's Company."
When I told him about the TV movie he did with Carrier Fisher, he kissed me on the cheek! He told me that was his very first TV movie, "Leave Yesterday Behind." I told him I saw his other movies and enjoyed them too.
It was heartbreaking in 2003 when he passed away just a few days before his birthday. I cried a lot that day.
Happy Birthday,
John Ritter!
