Remembering Jerry Nelson (July 10, 1934-August 23, 2012)

Someone actually calls Robin "Robbie"?

That would be Miss Piggy, right?

 

[FrackleFan2012]

Yes! We also need a new President (a leader) that can something right and the best he can.

Sure we can!

(Also, you forgot the word, "do" between the words, "can" and "something".)

Guys, let's not talk politics at an obituary! Total illogical going on here!

You know, one reason why the Muppet performers are such big heroes/role models to me is that they are good people. They really care about making others happy. You don't get that as often as you'd like to.

Sorry about that.

I sure agree with you, Mo.
The Muppet performers have been always nice for years, especially Jerry Nelson.
He has been my favorite performers since I first heard about him.

As more tribute pictures come in, they just keep getting better and better.

That would be Miss Piggy, right?

Erm...no...I don't think anyone does.

Vincent was referring to how you called him Robbie.

Hello,
The Cape and Islands NPR Station, Jerry Nelson's local station, did a Remembrance show to Jerry this past Tuesday. The NPR reporter, Sean Corcoran, who hosts the show, was a friend of Jerry's and interviewed him many times. There's lots of previously-unaired archival tape of Jerry. You can listen to it here:
