[Magdalen] Celebratig Mr Rogers.

[Sheila Ketler]

We always knew that there would be a quiet half an hour or so as my little
children (5 of them born within 8 years!) would sit captivated in front ot
the television watching Mr. Rogers. I always wanted to sing along with him
won't you be my neighbour??
He is sorely missed...
