Mr hooper was the first death I remember. I was so sad when he passed. I loved how they never changed the name of his store. Even as a little kid, I loved that he wasn’t just forgotten.
I wonder if that news dealer in the clip above is Jim Henson. It sounds like him. I also wonder if Gen Xers have slightly higher levels of empathy and cooperation …. We were the Sesame Street generation, really. |

Awww. Another Gen Xer here. That clip above made me beam.
I didn’t know that Bob had a singing career before Sesame and was truly big in Japan; he recorded and performed songs in Japanese. Talented man who was an Irish Tenor. |

| PP and he is a perfect example of “smiling” Irish eyes - his eyes just radiate joy. Bless. Read he was father to 5 daughters and 8 GC. |
