SoraAlfheim 69 Posted July 27, 2019 On July 26th, 2019, Russi Taylor [the English voice of Minnie Mouse, Huey, Dewey, Louie and Fauna in the Kingdom Hearts series] passed away in her home in Glendale, California due to complications from diabetes. She was 75 at the time of her passing. Russi Taylor was born on May 4th, 1944 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She began voice acting in 1980 and took over as the official voice of Minnie Mouse in 1987 as well as Donald's nephews Huey, Dewey, Louie in 1990 for the series Ducktales. She was also married to Wayne Allwine, former voice actor of Mickey Mouse, from 1991 until his passing in 2009.

Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted July 28, 2019 The only silver lining here is that somewhere out there she and her beloved husband are reunited.

Ursalink 114 Posted July 29, 2019 Rest in peace, Mrs Taylor; you earned it. I don't think your replacement will ever be at your level. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) Oh man, not another one! We keep losing the good ones! But wow, that's crazy! I didn't know that she had been Wayne Allwine's wife! The real life Mickey and Minnie are reunited now! This is so heartbreaking, though! I am incredibly saddened to hear of this loss! Thank you for your dedicated work to bringing smiles to people, Russi, may you rest in peace and find happiness with your very own Mickey, Mr. Allwine! May your hearts be your guiding key, always! And thank you for all you did for us! :') Thank you for informing us of this, HaakonHawk!

Iscreamer1 100 Posted July 29, 2019 Personally, I don’t care who’s going to be voicing Minnie since she didn’t get a decent amount of screen time in KH III. As a matter of fact, I think I’m starting to become one of those fans who cares more for the main story rather than the Disney Worlds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
