I am sorry to hear about the passing of Punky. I am Scott, Gordy Halvorson is my dad I always enjoyed when Punky would come over. He would tease my brother and I he always had a corny joke to tell and a few magic tricks. I think back on this with great fondness he was always one of the best person I have ever known.
