Nine Lives Ran Out...

The last living Nine Old Men has been lost today. Natural causes; Ollie Johnston passed away this morning at a long-term care facility in Sequim, Washinton.
He was amazing. It's a sad loss for his family and it makes us feel sad...but think how happy he must be to join his wife and his best friend, Frank. Let our prayers go out to his family.
If you haven't read their book...get it. Honor him by watching the movies he worked on. Let us, celbrate his life in our own ways. It looks like Walt Disney Studios is having a celebration of his life. The Funeral services will be private.
Hat Tip: The Associated Press. Their article, for more info.
