I can't believe it's been that long already. It seems like yesterday that we lost him. He was a great man, kind of like everyone's grandfather.

Wow, two years... Did his DVD set come out yet? I heard it was going to be wrapped in one of his famous zip up cardigans

Wow ... two years already? Time really does fly. I have his autograph still ... this was right before he dies; I recieved one from him and one from Mr. McFeely.
Two DVD releases are due in April ... you can either get them with a toy or in a sweater ... I think only one will be in a sweater though. I'm not on it now, but tvshowsondvd.com has all the Mister Rogers DVD news stories; simply do a search by show.
And BTW, "never" again refer to Mister Rogers by his real name. Thats like sacreligious or something

Mr. Rogers on DVD?! That's great news! I keep meaning to tape episodes off PBS because I didn't know how long they'd still be on.

It's still hard to believe it has been two years.

Thanks Philip, I'd never seen those articles. They're better than most of the tributes I saw around that time.
