I knew Bil & Cora for many years. Cora died of cancer in the late 1960's and Bil passed in 1987. Their son Peter, who carried on with the Marionettes, passed on several years ago. When I was a kid Bil would gather us children together and draw wonderful tattoos on our chests, backs and arms. Our parents didn't mind since the ink would wash off after a few days. Kids just naturally gravitated to him.

...however...In my enthusiasm for the comedy of Bil 6 Cora Baird, I temporarily forgot the purpose of this show was to assist disabled/victim of birth-defects children. (Please don't think I'm making light of the suffering of these unfortunate children!)

I read Bill Baird was the man who trained Jim Henson.
