Description

I was just talking about him recently to my husband too.  We both loved watching Mister Ed, and we both absolutely loved him as Scrooge McDuck... 
He was a pretty great guy, I heard he adopted his little horse buddy after the show was over because Ed became attached to him... ♥


You'll be missed greatly Mister Young.

How lovely.

*Scrooge: *rides off on Mr. Ed* Off to me next great adventure!
*Hiram Flaversham (from The Great Mouse Detective) & Farmer Smurf: *run after them* Scrooge! Wait up!

I always remembered him as Philsby from "The Time Machine, 1966", where the writers for the original Duck Tales got the idea to use his voice. There was a certain special wisdom in his Scottish accent that really drove home his warning to The Traveler.

While a shame that he's gone. I really can't feel sad when a person dies who is in at least their late 80's. The man lived a long and very full life and his time was bound to come sooner or later.

He went in the best way; surrounded by loved ones, after a great life. 
I think there's a level of sadness for the people who enjoyed his work because his legacy is over.  No matter who replaces him now, the characters Mr. Young portrayed no longer have their voice.  That is what people mourn for when we don't know them personally.  The tidbits of their life gave us a sneak peek, but ultimately we loved him for what he helped bring to life.

I'm supportive of the new guy who'll be playing Scrooge's voice, and look forward to seeing a new Scrooge.  But, he'll never replace Alan Young's work.  Only stand beside it.

Also reminds me of when he played the White Knight in an animated musical edition of Alice's Adventures Through the Looking Glass (with Alice wearing jeans and having a love interest with the Red Queen's jester...)

Don't say it like that! It makes me think he wasn't worth it. At least now he is in a better place just as my great-grandmother is right now. Just died today.

Very sorry to hear my friend, but i meant it in the term of people who leave this plane of existence are freed of what we must deal with. So both him and your grandmother, i believe, are free of pain and suffering.  In particular, I heard Mr. Young passed away with his family around him, and at 96. He lived a glorious wonderful life and blessed us with his acting skills and memorable voice.  I will always appreciate him; for what he's done acting wise and the kindness he showed to the Horse he worked with.  Regardless of my feelings though, I hope i didn't offend.

WishExpedition23 In reply to SkyPirateDash [2016-05-27 03:02:37 +0000 UTC]

Oh I see. Yes, they both died right then and how. My grandparents and granduncles were around great grandmother when she died today at 92. And they both deserved to be free from all the pain they've suffered from before death came. I'm glad it's over for them now, sad, but glad all the same.

Wow...wow...I cannot believe he's actually gone. My grandparents used to show me so many episodes of Mister Ed when I was little. And Ducktales, along with many other shows back then, is a show I grew up with...heck...even though Winnie the Pooh inspired me to become an artist, Ducktales further got me into being the artist/illustrator I am today.

Just like Wayne Allwine, Alan Young will greatly be missed, especially in the Disney community.

P.S. Beautiful tribute piece you've done.
