Funny man of the 50's 60's & 70's, passed away at age 83. I remember seeing alot of his stuff as a kid.

R.I.P.

His show originated here in Detroit, so I got a big dose of his stuff early in life, loved the guy, influencial.  Just checked, can still do the Soupy shuffle.

The Soup was a tasteful music-lover.  The guitarist who did some work on his show had a studio around here my mother informed me when I developed some decent playing, but I searched everywhere for signs he was still in the city and couldn't find him.  Both Soup's son's are really good rock musicians.

As a small kid, the guy was an idol and one of the bright stars of his day for kids.  Life impressions being Soupy's show, along with Johnny Ginger, and by kindergarten, I was in the corner every day.

Big thanks, Soup, my man.  You were there for this kid.   Hope you got the big pie in the sky.

He was part of my and my brothers childhood. Respectable humor.

Soupy was a big part of my life too.  My Mom had to stock up on Soupy's typical lunch menus because whatever Soupy had for lunch that day, so did I or I wouldn't eat anything!

RIP Soup.
