Sad news.
It was reported this morning through Yesterdayland that the voice of Gumby and Archie Andrews, that Riverdale teenager who's cartoons were popular on Saturday mornings, has passed away. Dallas McKennon, who also voiced several cartoon characters for Disney, Walter Lantz (Buzz Buzzard) and who also acted on the Daniel Boone series, passed away at 89, "just shy of his 90th birthday".
As one of my fellow group members stated: "For many of us the various voices that Mr McKennon gave us are part of our childhood, the voices we grew up on and, despite his passing, those voices will never fade".
I say "Thank you Mr McKEnnon - RIP"
