That's right, Disney and Mickey fans alike would be striken to find out that on May 18th, 2009, Wayne Allwine, the voice behind the world's most famous mouse for more than a few decades--1977 to 2009--has passed away. With that said, my condolences are sent out to The Disney Company, especially to Russi "Minnie Mouse" Taylor, who may not be up to voicing Minnie anymore now that her husband is no longer with her. Having noted this, I wonder who Disney will get to play the infamouse mice couple, if anyone. Anyway, rest in peace, Allwine. Disney and Mickey fans everywhere will miss you dearly.

Considering he was a replacement he did a fantastic job in those years, much better than the person Warner Bros got to take over Mel Blanc as the voice of Bugs Bunny. Wayne Allwine you will be missed.

It was agreed that he was a replacement, because even Allwine himself acknowledged that Mickey IS a part of who "Uncle Walt" was and a part of his vision.

I was devastated when I heard this. Is it pathetic to admit I cried?

Certainly not, my queen. When our childhood icons--through their voice actors or performers--die, a peice of the character we associated with them dies too, as does a bit of our inner child.
