You don’t have to be a SpongeBob fan to realize the impact that “Sponge” made to the cartoon community. I mean, to this day I still see everything from SpongeBob coffee mugs to adult underwear.
Nickelodeon just posted this sad news….
💛 We are sad to share the news of the passing of Stephen Hillenburg, the creator of SpongeBob SquarePants. Today, we are observing a moment of silence to honor his life and work. 💛
