As the World Turns was a sister soap to Guiding Light. Most people who visited Springfield everyday stopped in Oakdale on the way. So I wanted to take a minute and tell you about a current event in Oakdale.
I’m sad to report that James Douglas who played Grant Colman on and off for decades has passed away. Grant Colman was one of the good guys. Aside from Bob, Grant was the one who was a rock for Lisa. He showed up and helped when things were bad. If I could pull one lawyer from all time in soapland to be partners with Mike Bauer, it would be Grant. That shows you how much I think about him.
