Fred Rogers’ Mom lived in Clearwater and he visited her often. We would see him and his Mom at the Carlouel Yacht Club on Clearwater Beach. All the kids always did a double take when they saw him. You can imagine! He was always very cordial and friendly and didn’t mind being recognized. I think his Mom was quite proud of him and didn’t mind the inturreptions.
He was also an ordained minister.
