I have not seen the movie yet but I was raised in western PA and did my Med Tech technical training at Latrobe Hospital in the hometown of Mr. Rogers. Among other things he donated a lot of money to the hospital to purchase equipment. The lab benefitted from this getting a blood gas analyzer (this was the early 70s so a big thing then) to help diagnose and monitor critical patients.

I think the world would be a much better place if the future leaders of the world (aka kids) would watch someone like Mr. Rogers instead of a bunch of violent video games and egotistical and crude sports and TV personalities.
