On Friday, John Henson, son of famous Muppeteer Jim Henson, passed away from a sudden and massive heart Attack at age 48. John worked as a Muppeteer himself for his father. John most famously portrayed the large muppet, Sweetums.
Jim Henson, John’s father, died suddenly back in 1990. Jim’s death shocked the world. Last year, John’s mother, Jane Nabel Henson, died at 79 after a long battle with cancer.
We send out our thoughts and prayers to the Henson family.
