That's good to know. I always thought Amy Yasbeck was a very sweet lady whenever I saw her on any TV show that she did.

"With Love and Laughter, John Ritter" will be published by Simon & Schuster in September, on the seventh anniversary of Ritter's death from an undiagnosed aortic dissection.

"It's about John's take on everything, and what it was like to live with him," says Yasbeck, an Ursuline Academy graduate and actress who met Ritter shooting "Problem Child" in 1989. "People have seen him as the celebrity, but this will be about the friend, the dad and the husband."

Shortly after his death in 2003, Yasbeck started the John Ritter Foundation to promote awareness about aortic aneurysm and dissection (Johnritterfoundation.org)
