Thurl Ravenscroft, RIP

The memorably deep voice of Thurl Ravenscroft is silent.

Ravenscroft passed away last weekend at the age of 91. He's probably best remembered as the voice of Tony the Tiger and the singer of "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch."

I also remember him for the many Disneyland rides in which his voice can be heard. My favorite is The Haunted Mansion, where you can also see his face on one of the singing busts in the graveyard.
