Thread Name: Fred Rogers hangs up his sweater (1928-2003)
Subject: RE: Fred Rogers hangs up his sweater
It could be argued by adults that Mr. Rogers was sacharinly sweet. But as a child, I remember the show with an amazing clarity. And considering that I do not remember any other kids show as well as this one from that same period of my life, I'd say that it made quite the impression. I loved the imagination that went into his world, both the "real" side and the imaginary one ruled over by King Friday.

And you betcha he made an impact on me musically! It was some of the first music I was introduced to as a child. I *still* know the theme song!! ;)

Thanks for the memories, Mr. R! :D
