I definitely recommend you all to go ahead and read this wonderful article about this amazing, one heck of a sweet guy that is Bob McGrath. It's got a couple of fun facts, an interview, and even a little backstory about how Bob came to be in the show 45 years ago. No matter what, he will always be a favorite of mine.:smile:

Oh, and had I mentioned that he had jumped and parachuted off an airplane recently?? Sigh, that Bob...:smile:

Wow, I can't believe I didn't see this thread before! This really is a nice article there. You know...it's amazing to see how close Bob was with Will Lee. In the Sesame Street Unpaved documentary, Bob noted how hard it was to go near the store for a year after Will died, and who can blame him? If you shared a dressing room with someone you were good friends with both on and off the show, you'd probably have quite a bit of difficulty too!

"No matter what, he will always be a favorite of mine.:smile:" You said it best! :smile:
