Brenda Strong Instagram – It is with deep sadness that I mourn the death of my dear friend, actor Treat Williams.
Treat and I first met on the film Deep End Of the Ocean, with Michelle Pfieffer and a little while later, we ended up playing husband and wife on the beloved CW Greg Berlanti show Everwood. Treat cared deeply about the work, his wife and kids, his planes and his friends.
He had a huge heart and appetite for life, and lived life on his terms. Generous to a fault, one year, he even flew his plane to the town of Helena, Montana to help me perform ‘Love Letters’ as a fundraiser for the Montana Shakespeare Company to support a fledgling theatre company run by college friends of mine and talk to the students about being a professional actor, the approach to the work, quality writing, the reality of sometimes having to take jobs you wouldn’t otherwise, to protect your family.
He loved working and the freedom it provided, to live an adventurous life, but above all he loved his wife Pam and his kids, Gil and Ellie.
Even when he was away on set you were all with him, and his heart was never far from home.
Wherever his next adventure takes him, I am so grateful our paths crossed in this life. It was in his name. He was a Treat.
