In 1992, when the Erika Slezak Fan Club celebrated its 20th anniversary, Erika sent me a congratulatory letter that could only have come from her — warm, funny, and just a little bit mischievous!
She reminded me of everything I'd survived over those twenty years — Viki, Niki, marriages, divorces, amnesia, comas, and just about every imaginable calamity in Llanview! But she didn't stop there. There were also newsletters, cancelled appointments, unanswered phone calls, headaches, and all the trials and tribulations of running a Fan Club. And according to Erika, the worst of all was — HERSELF!
After that wonderfully long list, she pointed out that I was STILL HERE!
Well, more than thirty years later, I'm still here, Erika! And I wouldn't have had it any other way.
This letter still makes me laugh every time I read it, and it's one of my most treasured keepsakes from our many years of friendships.
