Brad Johnson, the actor who appeared on “Melrose Place” and in Steven Spielberg’s film “Always,” has passed away. He was 62.
Johnson died from COVID-19 complications on Feb. 18 in Fort Worth, Texas.
His rep, Linda McAlister, confirmed the news of his death to the Hollywood Reporter.
“Although he was taken too early, he lived life to the fullest and taught his children to do the same,” his family said in a statement.
“Brad greatly enjoyed improving and enhancing land, in a way that maintained and respected its natural beauty,” the statement continued. “He always felt most at home outdoors, and his passion for the land made that evident. As much as he loved cowboying, hunting and land, Brad loved nothing more than his family.”
His family members also remembered him as “a true renaissance man” in the obituary dedicated to the soap opera star.
“He was not only interested in all life had to offer, but was gifted in it as well,” they remembered. “Although he was taken too early, he lived life to the fullest. He was larger than life. Brad was loved by many and loved people back, a genuine friend, trusted colleague, and a dedicated husband and father, he will never be forgotten, and his legacy will go on.”
