RIP, Jerry Nelson

[mariness]

Brilliant puppeteer Jerry Nelson, best known to most of us as Count von Count, but remembered by me as Snuffleupagus, Big Bird's best friend who, during Nelson's run, couldn't be seen by grownups, died yesterday. He also performed many of the characters on The Muppet Show

Thank you for making me laugh so hard, Mr. Nelson, and teaching me how to count.
