I had the opportunity of interviewing the delightful Kelly Sullivan (Kate Howard).

For a young woman, she's had quite a career that encompasses Broadway, film, and prime time.

The current Maxie Jones, Jen Lilley, has announced on Twitter that she will continue on General Hospital as Maxie. This is not a surprise; when it was announced that Kirsten Storms was not returning at the expected time, this was the supposition by many.

In a "twitterlong" - longer than the usual 140 characters - Lilley has asked fans to tone down their hatred of her. She goes on to say that she is a huge fan of Storms.

Here's hoping that the fans lighten up a little. After all, this is a soap opera, not a Presidential election. And here's also hoping that Storms is okay.

Jen Lilley is an actress who auditioned to play a pivotal role because the actress playing her was ill. She doesn't deserve to be maligned because of the situation.  She deserves our support.

John Ingle (Edward Quartermaine) has lost his beloved wife of 58 years, Grace-Lynne.

One of Ingle's daughters posted a message today on Facebook:

...Our Mom, Grace-Lynne, died this morning, in her bed, wrapped in her robe, with her cat by her side.

We believe it was a stroke, but it could just as likely have been the angels that she so often summoned when praying for her loved ones. Apparently those same angels just decided it was her time to go.

Ingle, now 83, and Grace-Lynne married in 1954 and had five daughters.

We send our condolences to John Ingle and his family.
