    thats sad,

    it's especially sad because he was the kind of person that never hurt anyone,never a scandal,just a basic nice person.

    he was an american icon.

    he was unique.

    True, very true. Although I haven't watched him for over 25 years, I will certainly miss him now that he is gone. He was someone to look up to at an early age.

    Unhappy

    I will miss the trolley in the living room ( ! ) I wasn't too fond of the puppets, but I thought he was cool to have an " extra " house to go hang out..... And no one I knew had a street light in the living room! He was a good man...

    Unhappy

    Does anyone know if there are dvd's or videos of the show available?? I have two young children, and it would be great if I could let them grow up with Mr Rogers - with 25 years of programming, they can have 5 times the experience I did.

    Actually, I think he was a sniper in the Korean War.*

    I like his show when I was a kid. Not as much as 3-2-1 Contact, though. He honestly was an alumni member of my fraternity too.

    It is nice to know despite his death that he will be forever immotalized in this country's history with one of his red sweaters residing in the Smithsonian.

    I only wish that UPS and FedEx would try to act like Mr McFeely.


    I miss the guy already.
