Mr. Rogers died today :(

I work at a P.B.S. Station in Kentucky.
When i first got this job we had his show playing twice a day on my shift.
I will always have that train sound in my head.

The man, no matter how fruity, was truly a symbol of youth in America.
Nearly all of us watched him at some point. The little train was my favourite part. 🙁

Actually I am still a heartless bastard because I mourn for myself more than Mr. Rodgers.
I hate it when the things and people you've grown up with and know start dropping away.

How about Charles Schultz and Charlie Brown? In fact, 5 comic strip artists died that year. a conspiracy?

He was a big goofball, but he brought a lot of joy and happiness into kids lives (including myself).

R.I.P man 🙁

Dang, he was only 74? He looked older, but who am I to judge age?

RIP, Fred McFeely Rogers.

here is a good article from MSNBC.

I recall growing up with him. His sweaters, sneakers, and the like. Mr. McFeely, and all the rest of the crew, a motly one at that. I think the more people that are hurt from this are the late teens, and adults who really have grown up with him and recall his prime in the mid 80's. He was a good man.

Captain Kangaroo aka Bob Keeshan is still alive and teaches special programs with children. SO he is at least doing his thing.
