According to the AP, Rogers, a concert pianist, passed away in Pittsburgh today at the age of 92.

In 1969, Fred Rogers did something on national television that was so moving and so bold that it made a statement then and is still teaching society today.

The resemblance between these Hollywood actors and the real people they portrayed is uncanny when viewed side by side.

It's called the "Nicest Neighbor" costume and will only cost you $60 and your soul.

This beautiful stop-motion video celebrates the anniversary of the recording of the classic children’s show very first episode.

It's not often that a trailer for a documentary will make you cry, this one does.

Put on your sweater and grab a can opener, we are celebrating Mr. Rogers and ravioli today.

At one point in time, everybody knew Mr. Rogers. It was almost impossible to turn on the television and not catch Fred throwing on his signature cardigan or Bobo shoes and teaching people about the way bread is made or why dogs are constantly sticking their noses up one another's anus...

I think it is a fitting tribute to a man who taught me the power of imagination, dreams and kindness. It is amazing the things that will grow when you plant them in the garden of your mind.

There are two dancers in this video. One dances to impress and she is quite good. The other dances because the music won't allow her to sit still. While both performers are amazing in their own special way, only one has embraced the music with a part of her being that can not be taught.

This remix is different, the folks at PBS commissioned this piece and I personally think it came out beautifully. If you were a kid that grew up in Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood let me warn you, you will get a little misty eyed.

For so many of us growing up in the 1970's and 80's The Neighborhood of Make-Believe and Fred Rogers' house was a safe haven from a world that was growing more scary every day. Sure we all made fun of Mr. Rogers and his sweater and his sneakers but deep down inside we all craved the kindness and attention he preached from his porch.
