John Paul Henson, the son of Muppets creator Jim Henson, has died. He was 48.
A statement from the Henson Company read, “It is with great sadness that we confirm that John Henson, son of Jim and Jane Henson and brother to Lisa, Cheryl, Brian and Heather, died at age 48 of a sudden massive heart attack on Friday, February 14, while at home with his daughter. John served as a shareholder and board member of The Jim Henson Company. He leaves two daughters, Katrina (15) and Sydney (10) and his wife Gyongyi. A private service is being planned.”
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Henson family at this difficult time.
