What a shame to lose that wonderful voice at a relatively young age. He probably had many more years of Mickey left in him. :(

Wow. That's incredibly sad.

Godspeed, Mr. Allwine. Around all of Disney, you will be missed.

There are very few people in the company that I say they should do a special showing of Fantasmic or something to celebrate, but he would be one of them. You know, since he is, in one way, the star of the show.

Always great to be a part of something that will outlive you. And so, he joins the ranks of Jack Wagner.
