It is a rare gift when you have an actor embody a part the way Tom Hanks does. When I watch Tom in a movie I believe in the part he plays. He expresses himself not only with the words in the screenplay, but he adds the gestures in a way that you believe. It's hard for me to express just how magical I feel Tom Hanks acts. He is truly a precious gift! I'm looking forward to seeing, "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood." I will be bringing a box of tissues. Peace & Blessings ~

My wife worked at the Squirrel Hill public library (a branch in the Carnegie) in the children's department. It was the local library in the neighborhood of Shadyside, North Squirrel Hill, and Squirrel Hill. Mr Rogers show interacted with the library. Much of what Mr Rogers was doing with young children was also happening at the library. Showing respect to a 3 year old, asking their opinion, listening to their ideas.... when the rest of the world would just give them orders and tell them what to do. Outside of a child's parents, this was hard to find, and indeed, even including most parents, it was still hard to find. Child development happens best in an environment of love and security and attention. Tough things to bring to a television set. Only one man ever achieved that.

Of course being Tom Hanks, he nailed it! How did he not win an Oscar for this role? 😎

I met Tom in the 90's while he was filming "You Got Mail" He came into my uncle's shop and was like, 'Oh hey!' He was so warm and kind and very funny, a quick-witted guy for sure. I know that there were rumors that he's a sexual predator or assaulted girls. There was never a time in that interaction that I felt he would do something. I've been sexually assaulted as a kid and before the guy did anything, I felt an extreme sense of dread and fear because predators give off that sickening vibe. Never got that with Tom whatsoever.

I grew up without a father. I identified very much with Daniel Striped tiger. I’m 53 yo now but I always saw Fred as my dad. He made me whole, feel loved, respected and taught me that I was always enough; That I wasn’t odd because all the other kids had two parents. I grew up feeling so secure in myself when society said that a dark skinned, black girl who was an only child from a single parent household in the housing projects of Chicago couldn’t make it in life. My beginning was a recipe for disaster. I went to head start, was a star student, got a pre-law undergraduate degree, interned at the Attorney General’s office, paid my way through grad school at a top 10 university and got my MBA in one year instead of 2 years at the age of 23. I became a successful Market researcher and make award winning films on the side when I’m not doing volunteer work for nonprofits. whenever times were tough growing up, when I didn’t have enough to eat in grad school in Pittsburgh, even though I worked 30 hours to put myself through school, whenever I wanted to give up on myself, I could hear Mr. Rogers’ voice telling me to just take my time, you’ll make it. I did. I am. Thank you Mr Rogers.😘💯🤘🏾
