Today, March 20th is "Won't You Be My Neighbor Day", a day set aside to honor Fred Rodgers, the popular host of Mr. Rodger's Neighborhood on PBS. Rodgers was born on this day back in 1928.

Fred Rodgers received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, in excess of 40 honorary degrees, as well as a Peabody Award. He was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame. He passed away on February 27, 2003.

Wouldn't the world be a better place if we all treated each other like a neighbor?
