It is with great shock and sadness to learn about the passing away of Las Vegas hoops titan Mike Carter. Mike was a pillar of support in the @BishopGormanHS community (serving as a coach & support staff at the school - was recently honored by BG for 30 years of service to the school) as well as the greater Southern Nevada basketball community. He was a loving husband & father who also coached his two sons Tim & Ben on his Las Vegas Lakers club team. Mike graduated from Eagle Rock HS/CA, won the 1979 NAIA title at Drury University/MO and played 11 pro seasons in the Israeli Premier League. We will all miss him. May his memory be eternal

We say goodbye to another legend at 92 years old 🕊️ Emmy-winning Sesame Street producer Dulcy Singer has passed away at 92. Singer spent decades behind the scenes of Sesame Street and served as its executive producer from 1980 to 1993, overseeing the landmark children’s program during one of its most influential eras. Long before becoming executive producer, she produced the beloved 1978 special Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, which earned her and Jon Stone the Emmy for Outstanding Children’s Program. Her work later extended across hundreds of episodes and numerous specials featuring characters such as Big Bird, Oscar, Cookie Monster, Bert, Ernie, and the rest of the neighborhood. One of Singer’s most important contributions came when Sesame Street had to address the death of Mr. Hooper following actor Will Lee’s passing. Rather than simply writing the character out, Singer pushed the show to speak honestly to children about death. The resulting “Farewell, Mr. Hooper” episode became one of the most celebrated and remembered moments in the program’s history. Her name may have appeared behind the characters children loved, but the decisions she helped make shaped what Sesame Street became: a place where television could entertain children while trusting them with real lessons about life. Rest in peace, Dulcy Singer. Millions of children may never have known the woman behind Sesame Street, but generations grew up with the television she helped create 🕯️
