Wonder if there will be simple yet highly informative experiments at his funeral?

I have no idea who this fella is

Was he some kind of American Johnny Ball?

RIP anyway.

Since I have no idea who Johnny Ball is, I can\'t answer that question.

Mr. Wizard was kind of the early Bill Nye...trying to get kids interested in science by doing fun experiments and the like.

Thats a yes then. Johnny Ball used to do science for kids on the BBC.
