User blog:Muppetfan/Remembering Jerry Nelson

From Arthur Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

&nbsp Forgive me for this having absolutely nothing to do with Arthur, but I just thought it was worth noting to my fellow Arthur Wikians that a great and influential figure in the lives of many people passed away last night. That would be Jerry Nelson, a Muppet performer.

Though many people who are not obsessed fans of the Muppets have no idea who Jerry Nelson is, I'm sure this man has made some impact on your life in some way. He is the man who brought to life characters such as Floyd, Robin, Uncle Deadly, Camilla, Pops, Crazy Harry, and Lew Zealand on the Muppet Show, The Count, the Amazing Mumford, Sherlock Hemlock, Mr. Johnson, and half of the Two-Headed Monster on Sesame Street, and even Gobo, Pa Gorg, and Marjory the Trash Heap on Fraggle Rock. If the Muppets have made any impact on your lives, this man has made an impact on your life too, as Jerry made up a lot of what the Muppets had to offer. He may not have always been the show stealer, but his smaller, minor characters created so much of the integrity of the Muppets. This man will be truly missed.
