We knew it was coming eventually, but it's still very sad we lost another great.

Rest in peace, McDuck.
 
2016 is one of the worst years of all time
 

And they were planning a revival of the show, too.
 
Rest in peace.

Disney must have really liked the guy to keep him as the voice for nearly every single appearance of Scrooge McDuck.

Wonder what they'll do with the character now. I imagine modern Disney will decide to just hire a new voice actor and be done with it, unfortunately. Hopefully they'll at least make a rememberance thing to air.

I remember when the voice actor for Igor in the Persona series passed away, they reused already existing voice clips for the character's future appearances to honor him.

The original voice of Launchpad McQuack stated last year that the entire voice cast was being replaced, so Mr. Young wouldn't have been in it regardless of whether he was still living or not.
