I just logged on to update my blog and then saw that Kermit Love died last night.

From the NY Times obituary:

Although Mr. Love collaborated with luminaries of dance like George Balanchine, Agnes de Mille, Robert Joffrey, Jerome Robbins and Twyla Tharp, it was the 8-foot-2, yellow-feathered Big Bird and his 7-foot, woolly mammoth-like friend Mr. Snuffleupagus — both perennially 6 years old — that brought him global attention.

I only met him the one time but he was the nicest man. And genius. Oh, I am very sad. I feel like my best friend’s dad died, you know?
