i like his hair
I just got done reading about his life and watched this video and his 1997 Emmy acceptance speech, and I've got tears in my eyes.
I'm 20 years old. Hopefully one day I can show my kids his show, and maybe they can become a better person than me.
TV isn't the same without you.
He had a talent for making you not feel like crap.
a collective sense of self-respect and respect for eachother is just the beginning.
Fred Rogers taught that.
This world is missing Mr Rogers.
Mr. Rogers is a legend.
Badass to the bone. <3
