Wow, 1 whole minute? What a tribute.
This is a very rough day for my family. We all loved mr rogers and not only is this the 20th anniversary of his death, but also the 20th anniversary of my great uncles suicide. ☹️they were both too good for this world and still cant believe we lost them both on the same day.
I also recommend the book The World According to Mr. Rogers.
