I will really miss hearing his voice, he was a legend that should always be remembered. I love how great a sense of humor he had about himself.

Always sad to hear when someone who can do truly great work passes. It is no doubt that he’ll be remembered and he will leave some very large shoes to fill.

He’s nothing like I imagined he would look of course. I pictured a gray haired, 8 foot tall man with a stern face.

A very sad loss anyhow; he leaves behind an amazing body of work. I particularly remember his voice on the ‘Space Jam’ trailer.

“Bugs Buuuuuuuuuuuny” “Michael Joooooooooordan” etc.
