When I read it I felt like mickey died and left minnie alone.

wayne took over for jimmy, the last mickey, I wonder who the current backup is now.

Yeah, I would hope that there is already someone within the company that is able to "carry the torch". We all knew this day would come...Its just sooner than most expected.

I hope corey burton dont get the gig. he seems to get all the parts of dead actors the last years. he is more of a anime voice than disney.
here is his cartoon demo mp3:

My friend sent me a text message and told me. That's sad. :(

I somehow doubt that he will land the role of Mickey's voice. (And if he did, I would be surprised.)

Still, I think that Corey Burton does a great job with all of his Disney roles.

Thank you Mr. Allwine...

*silently wipes away a tear. May his family find strength in this dark time. :( :( :(

There are so few good voice actors these days and its heartbreaking to learn when one of greats passes.
Rest in Peace Wayne and love and sympathy to your family.
