21 years ago today, Richard Hunt left this world. I figured a thread in honor of the great man would be fitting (forgive me if one was made that I am not aware of).

Thank you, Richard, for all that you've done. :wink::eek::flirt::boo::grr:

I have researched that Jerry & Richard were the duo pewrformers until 1992.

Junior & Pa gorg
Gunge & Majory
Scooter & his uncle J.P. Groose
Floyd & Janice
The Two Headed Monster
Little Jerry & Rockin' Richard

I didn't get really get to know him much until now. It is completely impossible to imagine a world without Richard, Jerry, or Jim.

I guess he was part of our childhoods. (sighs)

Yeah. It would sure be impossible to imagine like that.
I adore Richard Hunt's voices throughout his life working with The Muppets. He performed wonderful characters from the high-pitched Beaker to the opera-singing Placido Flamingo to the rough-voiced Sweetums. I also adore Gunge and Junior Gorg because they're my favorite Richard Hunt characters. Too bad I never got a chance to meet Richard Hunt in person.

Awww rats! I can't believe I miss those SS characters. GRRR! I an't believe I was born around the 1990s.

All right! I knew I forgot the other characters. I don't have a very good memory, because I thought I had a banana in my ear... wait a minute it was earbuds. LOL!
