Rogers had been diagnosed with stomach cancer sometime after the holidays, Newell said."He was so genuinely, genuinely kind, a wonderful person," Newell said. "His mission was to work with families and children for television. ... That was his passion, his mission, and he did it from day one." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupaFly-TNT Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 ****, he was like the most nicest person ever. That sux! I watched him as a kid and my sister did when she was a kid 4 years behind me. He's been on for almost 40 years! Amazing! Even though my mom teased me for about an hour tonight on how much I loved Mr. Rogers, I still think his show was one of the few shows i remember as a kid, and on top of that, he was a preacher and never metioned god once which is commendable also, just a great person! Need more like him!SupaFly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
