He always felt most at home outdoors, and his passion for the land made that evident. As much as he loved cowboying, hunting, and the outdoors, Brad loved nothing more than his family. He always dreamt of a family business that his kids could be a part of and enjoy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The post closed by sharing how the TV star \u201cwas larger than life, and he will not be forgotten.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Johnson got his first big break when he landed the role of Dr. Dominick O\u2019Malley in the hit Fox show \u201cMelrose Place\u201d in 1996. He is also known for his role in Steven Spielberg\u2019s romantic\/fantasy drama \u201cAlways\u201d in 1989 alongside Holly Hunter and Richard Dreyfuss.<\/p>\n<p>He is survived by his wife of 35 years, Laurie, and their children, Shane, Bellamy, Rachel, Eliana, Eden, Rebekah, Annabeth, and William, as well as three grandchildren and his stepmother.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/the-right-stuff-star-fred-ward-dead-at-79\">\u2018The Right Stuff\u2019 Star Fred Ward Dead At\u00a079<\/p>\n<p><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big and small screen star Brad Johnson has died from complications due to COVID-19, the actor\u2019s family shared.
