Re: Roy Edward Disney Dies
I received this from the Los Angeles Times:
Los Angeles Times | Dec. 16, 2009 | 11:01 a.m.
Roy Disney dead at 79
Roy Edward Disney, the nephew of Walt Disney whose commitment to his uncle's creative spirit prompted him to mount revolts that led to the unseating of two of the company's chief executives and a revival of the studio's legendary animation unit, died this morning at age 79. He had been battling cancer.
Disney toiled for years in the shadow of his famous uncle and his father, Roy O. Disney, who behind the scenes ran the business side of the Walt Disney Co. for his brother. But Roy E., the quiet man in the cardigan sweaters, would emerge as a forceful protector of family traditions.Comment

Re: Roy Edward Disney Dies
A great man who fought hard for the Disney company to be the best it could be. He will be missed. Thanks Roy for all the years of hard work.
Our revels now are ended. These our actors, As I foretold you, were all spirits and Are melted into air, into thin air: And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, The cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff As dreams are made on, and our little life Is rounded with a sleep. mycroft16 on TwitterComment

Re: Roy Edward Disney Dies
This is sad indeed. May he rest in peace. :'(
Btw...does anybody find this a bit coincidental with it being only one day after the anniversary of Walt's demise?

Re: Roy Edward Disney Dies
This is very sad news. I remember the savedisney.com days vividly and today I feel like I've been punched in the gut with the reality that Roy will most likely be the last Disney, or member of the Disney company for that matter, that could ever get the shareholding community to successfully rally against those in the organization that seek to destroy the Disney family traditions and ethical approach towards their entertainment division and the company as a whole. To me Roy will always be honored as a champion and I will really miss him.Comment
