I just heard that Mr. Rogers passed away. :( I'm sure I'm not the only one who used to watch his show.
So long Mr. Rogers and may the Force be with you...

I have watched Mr. Rogers both as a child and as an adult with my children and it was great both times. He was an extraordinary man. God speed to heaven, Mr. Rogers.

Arcuss, I can't think of a better tribute. Wish I was a knight so I could use one as my saying.

If I were a Knight, I'd say yup. That pretty much sums up what the Academy is about IMHO.

It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
A beautiful day for a neighbor.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?...

It's a neighborly day in this beauty wood,
A neighborly day for a beauty.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?...

I've always wanted to have a neighbor just like you.
I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.

So, let's make the most of this beautiful day.
Since we're together we might as well say:
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?
Won't you please,
Won't you please?
Please won't you be my neighbor?

Yeah, it was sad to hear abou that. I probably lost a childhood hero, and now I wonder what will be there for the future generations (like if I have kids.)

Rogers was a guy who I would trust anyone to. And he was still good, even when I sat to watch him some random times on TV. He had lessons even adults should go back to.

And the land of make-believe. My favorite place of all.

He'll be missed. An equal man we will never see again, but we can only hope that from what he tought, we can serve this world well.

What a great man he was. He practiced what he preached. Love, Kindness, and a Smile for All.

Yes ioshee had Mr. Rogers as his profile pic at one time. When I heard that Mr. Rogers died, I thought about that profile pic and ioshee.

Thanks ioshee for having the same qualities like Mr. Rogers; Love, Kindness, and a Smile for All.

well i have one thing that i think of, i don't know why but it came to my mind as soon as i heard about the Death of Mister Rogers, so i give the lyrics to you:

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls."
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.
