Hey guys,

I just read that Ollie Johnston, the last of the Nine Old Men, has died.

I can't really collect my thoughts just now.  God bless him and keep him, and let light perpetual shine upon him.

UPDATE: Here's the Cartoon Brew article.  Includes some great tributes, an interview with Ollie himself from 2005, and a video of Glen Keane talking about the genius of Ollie's animation.  Worth a look.
