Congrats, Steve! 
I'm assuming S.O. is you and it's beautifully written so that gave it away. 
It's a wonderful letter about Jay. He's lucky to have such supportive people in his corner like you. Here's the letter on pg. 108:
The Right Stuff
For much of the past two years, Days of our Lives has wasted the talent of Jay Kenneth Johnson [Philip]. In the 2/9 episode, however, we viewers finally got to experience - for the first time in months - the scope of the actor's depth, versatility and range. When Philip was confronted with Stephanie's disappointment, Johnson showcased Philip's conflicting emotions of rage, hurt, and vulnerability with intense realism. It was a powerful and chilling, yet subtle, performance, and one I hope will be up for Emmy consideration next year. [Executive Producer] Ken Corday recently stated that Johnson is important to the future of Days. Let's hope the writer's act upon this endorsement with material worthy of a very gifted, yet inexplicably underutilized actor.

Note: In the same issue beginning on pg. 62, there's a four page article covering the entire history of the character Philip Kiriakis.
