I enjoy casually horrifying people by mentioning that Fred Rogers had 2 children.

Which means that he at least occasionally did the nasty.




Joanne is still here, and did a lot of work making sure Fred's projects had the forward direction he'd have wanted after he passed away.

She's an absolute delight and an accomplished pianist in addition to her other accolades.


She passed away last year, but I remember her doing some press the last few years, and was always delightful. She seemed a little mischievous in a way that seemed like it would have offset Fred's near-saintly disposition.


I missed that. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

He was very mischievous too in his own way... I'm not surprised they were such a good match.


I mention that he was a lifelong Republican.
