I didn't cry a lot; didn't act out; didn't fight with my brothers or my dad. A few months after that, my grandma took me ... to see a taping ofThere were maybe 10 other kids there. After the taping, Mr. Rogers sat on a set of steps on the set, and each child went up to talk with him one on one. When it was my turn, I went up.
He said he understood that someone very close to me had died. I started crying. Mr. Rogers gave me a hug, and told me, 'Sometimes we lose people who are very important to us. It's very sad when it happens, and it's okay to be sad. It's okay to cry.' He then asked me if I could tell him a story about my mother, which I did. He told me, 'That was a very nice story. Thank you for telling me about her.' He gave me another hug and sent me off.
