My husband forwarded this link to me and I just wanted to share...as if we didn't already know that Mr. Rogers was the best grown-up ever...

Great link!! When he passed away, my husband cried for 2 days...he'd had a rough childhood, but cherished the "good" times when he and his mother sat watching Mr. Rogers.

Thanks Celeste for sharing that link. I had tears in my eyes reading it. Mr. Rogers was truly a very special human being, the most kind person I can think of.

That was wonderful. I truly miss Mr. Rogers and especially his influence. There will never be another like him.

Even after my ds outgrew him, I used to tune in myself sometimes.

Wow! That was so great! I literally teared up reading it...from happiness! He was such a wonderful and kind man. I remember watching his tv show growing up! He was very influential in a very good way! Thanks for sharing that with us!
