RIP Ilene Woods

Post by MmeLeota » Jul Fri 02, 2010 11:58 am

The voice of Cinderella has been silenced. I just heard this morning that Ilene Woods has passed away. She was 81. :cry:

I imagine that D23 is working on an article, but it has not yet been posted.

Thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.

Wow they didn't announce this at all in WDW. Shame that another original has passed on. We should really cherish the remaining originals that are left.

I am wondering if they will release a Blu-Ray version of Cinderella sometime this year since it is 60 years old. I hope they have some interviews with Ilene Woods they can include. I know they did an incredible job with Snow White and Sleeping Beauty.
