PITTSBURGH, Feb. 27 — Fred Rogers, who gently invited millions of children to be his neighbor as host of the public television show “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” for more than 30 years, died of cancer early Thursday. He was 74.

Wow, even though its been 30 years since growing up on his show, it's still sad...
So everyone remember the Crooked House? Well, its on Nantucket over at Smith's Point and we stayed across from it a couple times. One time when Schoolie Monster, his daughter and I were walking over to the beach one morning, Mr Rogers strolled up from the beach in a Tux and said hello and nodded.
Not a brush with fame, but a short memory of a genuinely nice guy that a LOT of us knew growing up...
