I had to post this part of what was written though (even though it's half of what was written LOL)
Mr. Sorbo (although he’d probably smack me for not calling him Kevin – and when you’ve been smacked by Hercules, you know it) is one of the friendliest people you will ever meet – very real, down to Earth… The first day of shooting with him, he sat down at breakfast with the crew and introduced himself to each person (as if we didn’t know who he was) and was genuinely interested in each of us – what our role was on set, what our life story was, and so on… just a great, great man to meet. If you ever get a chance to see him at a convention sometime… do it.
I've been saying this about Kevin since I first met him in 2007 at MARCON in Columbus, OH I'd already been a devoted friend since 1994. I was in my wheelchair and he asked mew why and listened to my whole sad tail of why(bed hip) I had said it's a long story I didn't want to bother him with it, but he wanted to hear it he said, about half way through Steve Bacic(Rhade on Andromeda... was there too and also a wonderful kind and caring man they are both very good to their fans)Told Kevin a line had formed again and he needed to sign again. He was listening to me and we hadn't noticed LOL I was so embarrassed I distracted him and said I'd go and leave him alone... he told me No and to stay there he wanted to hear the rest. I was like Okay if you say so LOL I moved to the side and waited. Anyway... when he found out My Husband and I drove from West Central Wisconsin to Columbus, OH (driving from our place near Wisconsin Dells, WI to a friend's house near Detroit, MI and then she drove us to Columbus, OH the next day was a 671 mile drive) I road all that way to meet him... He gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek and thanked me for most likely being in pain the whole way just to come see him. and I've seen him 2 more times since then at ShoreLeave in Baltimore, MD in 2010 and a a Book Signing for his book in Minneapolis, MN in 2012 and every time he remembered me and did the same game me a hug and a kiss on the cheek thanked me for making the trip and asked on an update on how I'm doing... He's a very down to earth, Kind and caring Man... You truly should go meet him if you get the chance...
My Autographs and photos with Kevin are here: https://www.facebook.com/NyxxRose/media_set?set=a.344599712205.153728.563197205&type=3&uploaded=3
