He was an American icon. I watched him when I was young and so did my kids. He was a very gentle person who made little children feel good.

About themselves. Sheesh. You are trodding all over a beloved childhood memory!

My older daughter met him in person when she was about two and a half. She was very upset because he "belonged" inside a TV and seeing him as a real man was confusing and puzzling to her. (The family member who was with her, however, was thrilled to meet him.)
