Bob Keeshan, a.k.a. Captain Kangaroo, was an important part of countless childhoods during his long tenure as a TV entertainer. Not only was he loved and respected by the millions of viewers that tuned to watch him, but also his peers. During his long and decorated career, he received numerous awards, including a total of five Emmys. This made that day in January of 2004 when he passed away all the more difficult for his friends, family, and anyone else close to him. However, the laughter and knowledge he brought to so many will live on in their memories forever.
