Today is a sad day, as we have lost Stephen Hillenburg. What an amazing man who deserves to be honored. Stephen Hillenburg was born 59 years ago in 1959, and passed away today aged 59. The creator of SpongeBob, he had big ambitious projects that he worked on. What started as an educational comic series turned into a timeless show that everyone loves. He worked on the show until the very end, and built up most of my childhood. He will always be remembered in our hearts, our minds, and our souls. May he rest in peace.
