June Foray passed away at 99. She was in many ways a female equivalent of Mel Blanc in voicing hundreds of TV and movie cartoons and live action shows for over 80 years! If you watched cartoons growing up, chances are you heard her many times-from Rocky and Natasha in Rocky and Bullwinkle to Cindy Lou Who in How the Grinch Stole Christmas to Granny on Tweety and Syvester to even an evil doll in The Twilight Zone episode, Living Doll! She helped to establish animation as an art form including the creation of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film. Her voice lives on for countless generations.
