Today's Google (for those who can see it, hopefully most).

>From the Google special page:

"On this date, September 21, 1967, 51 years ago, Fred Rogers walked into the television studio at WQED in Pittsburgh to tape the very first episode of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, which would premiere nationally on PBS in February 1968.  He became known as Mister Rogers, nationally beloved, sweater wearing, “television neighbor,” whose groundbreaking children’s series inspired and educated generations of young viewers with warmth, sensitivity, and honesty."

I didn't watch him religiously growing up, but I certainly knew he was always there.

Boy do I miss him now.  As well as many of us, I'm sure.

He died in 2003.
