Sky Rumph

Sky was one of many daytime soap stars who contributed a recipe for a cookbook titled Soap's On. The book was put together by Deidre Hall as a fundraiser for Options House, a shelter for homeless youth. Sky submitted the recipie for one of his favorite meals, homemade thick crust pizza.

In 1988, Sky appeared in a commercial for "Fresh Scent Clorox." It featured a number of kids doing different things, all in their bright white clothes. Sky was a country western guitar player.

This guitar player had a girlfriend. He kissed her at one point and later the commercial ended with the two of them smiling at each other.

Sky appeared in another commercial that ran in late 1988. It was for the Hot Wheels "Sto and Go" by Mattel. He was first pictured playing with the toy, moving the cars around.

We next saw Sky at the end, proud of his work. The tagline for the commercial: "Mattel Salutes the Young Entrepreneur."

Sky played five year old C.J. Thurman in the 1989 NBC made for TV movie of the week A Cry for Help: The Tracey Thurman Story. It was based on a true story about domestic violence. He co-starred with Nancy McKeon and Dale Midkiff. Tracey Thurman sued the police department in Torrington, Connecticut for not properly responding to her reports of violence. There is now a law in Connecticut that is known as the "Thurman Law." It requires police to treat domestic violence as they would any other violent crime.

Sky was shown at the very end of the movie when C.J. was older. He was the third actor to play C.J. He was only in two scenes of the movie and had one line.

In this picture, C.J. is staring at his mom. She was just released from the hospital, after her husband, C.J.'s father, beat her, nearly killing her. She was paralyzed on one side of her body and was trying to make her way up the stairs to see her son.

C.J. was eating dinner and his mom asked if he wanted a apple for dessert. This was Sky's only line in the movie, "No skin."

C.J. then watched his mom try to peel the apple. Tracey tried to explain to C.J. that it was to hard for her to peel the apple. C.J. didn't understand why his mom couldn't do these simple things for him anymore.

Tracey got frustrated and dropped the knife on the table. C.J. picked it up and banged it on the table.

Tracey snapped at him, telling him never to pick up a knife again. During the most recent beating, Tracey was stabbed many, many times.

Shane, Kimberly and Andrew were all sad because Eve was missing. There was a storm outside that made the power go out and temporarily delayed the search for Eve. Shane decided the best way to pass the time was to tell Andrew a story, which, at Andrew's request would be one "where the good guys win and there's magic." Andrew, Kim and Shane all helped start the story with the important words, "Once upon a time...."

The fairy tale episodes from February 1989 are considered classics. Here Sky, Charles and Patsy show off their royal costumes. In the fairy tale story, Kim and Shane were the king and queen and young Andrew was the prince.

Andrew looked into the crystal ball as his dad went on with the story.

In the story, the royal family is sad because princess Eve is missing. Even Calliope, the royal jester, couldn't cheer them up. It was only when she said that she would help save the princess that they began to laugh. The thought was absurd.

King Shane gave Sir Roman of Brady a medallion to help him find the Princess. Shane gave Andrew the same medallion and Andrew promised that he would help Sir Roman save the Princess.

Everyone in the royal kingdom attempted to save the princess, including Stephen of Hood, Sir Roman of Brady, and even the Evil Count Kiriakis . However, it was realized that only the innocence of a child could help save the princess.

Occasionally they cutaway from the story to show Shane, Andrew and Kim back in their living room. The whole family was engrossed in the tale.

Prince Andrew finally reached Princess Eve.

Prince Andrew received the medallion as a reward for saving the Princess.

Although the story was over, Eve was still missing. Andrew had his medallion and hoped it would help save his sister, just like it saved Princess Eve.

Andrew has two parents who love him very much. Sky appeared in just a few episodes as Andrew. He was probably cast specifically for the fairy tale episodes, because Andrew had such a large role and many lines to speak. He was replaced in mid-1989 by Bradley Pierce.

Andrew was excited to see Eve come into the room the morning after her return. He ran to give her a big hug.

Kim and Shane told Eve they were all happy to have her home. Kim said, "Isn't that right Andrew?" He gave Eve a hesitant look, which turned into a great big smile as he said, "Right."

Then Andrew asked the question everyone wanted the anwser to. "Eve, why did you run away?" He held onto Kim's hand as he waited for an answer.

Andrew told Eve he never wanted her to run away again. She held him and looked in his eyes and told him she would never run away again.

Andrew asked Eve if he was going to go see Grandma in the hospital. Eve had no idea that Caroline was sick. She asked what else she'd missed while she was gone.

Andrew said, "I was sick too!" Eve was very curious about what had happened to him.

Kim said Andrew "ate a bug" and it didn't like him. Andrew shook his head. It definitely didn't like him.

Andrew asked Eve why she looked so sad. She said that when she was away, she met a man, but she didn't know who he was or where he lived. She didn't think she'd ever see him again and that made her sad.

Andrew told Eve that in the story Shane had told him, they'd used the special medallion to help find Eve and bring her home.

Eve asked Andrew if it had worked. He said, "Yeah, look." Eve picked up the medallion and agreed that it was pretty neat.

Andrew told Eve he was glad it worked and if she thought it could help her friend. Sky had said a number of lines by this point in the episode and was getting kind of frisky. He climbed the chair as he talked with Charlotte.
