The sad news is just coming over the computer. Bob Keeshan, better known as Captain Kangaroo died after a long illness.
I loved his show growing up and the characters he interacted with - Mr. Moose, Bunny Rabbit, and especially Dancing Bear. What I left best was him and his gentleness and the way he was always kind but never condescending to children. He was one of a kind and set the standard for children's programming for years.
