Farewell Mr. Wizard

Sad news for fans for fans of Don Herbert, known for decades as television’s Mister Wizard.  On Tuesday Herbet lost his battle with cancer and died in his California home at the age of 89.  In the 50’s Mr. Wizard taught the joys of science to children in his show Watch Mister Wizard for which he won a Peabody in 1954.  The show was revived in the 70’s and again in the 80’s as new generations learned the joys of science through simple experiments using household items that kids at home could recreate.  Thanks for the memories Mr. Wizard, and farewell.
