I thought of making a list of living Disney Legends a while ago, but I'll do it now for the ones who recieved the award before 2010: 1998: 16/22 dead. Kathryn Beaumont (1938-) Awarded for Animation - Voice. Glynis Johns (1923-) Awarded for Film. Hayley Mills (1946-) Awarded for Film. Kurt Russell (1951-) Awarded for Film. Dick Van Dyke (1925-) Awarded for Film. Matsuo Yokoyama (1927-) Awarded for Character Merchandise. 1999: 6/9 dead. Tim Allen (1953-) Awarded for Television, Film & Animation - Voice. Mary Costa (1930-) Awarded for Animation - Voice. Dick Nunis (1932-) Awarded for Attractions. No wikipedia page but still active, apparently also on social media. 2000: 10/10 dead. Ruthie Thompson (1910-2021) Has outlived all the seven living people given this award that year, all younger than her and one of the posthumous awards was for someone born six years after her. Awarded for Animation. Lots of old, frail ones there. Dick Nunis, Disney Legend and pivotal to the development of Walt Disney World in Orlando, has died aged 91. That really leaves only two imagineers who would have worked in depth on Disneyland and Disney World plans and attractions with Walt - Orlando Ferrante (91) and Bob Gurr (92). The Metro newspaper gave Rolly Crump an obituary this year so I would expect Bob Gurr to also get a write up. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never met Dick, but I've known more than a few who'd worked for (or with) him (perks of studying theme park management at university I suppose). Apparently he was still in relatively good health until recently. Probably the worst thing about Dick was that he was obsessed with giving Australia a Disneyland for years. But that's another story for another day... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,620 Posted December 19, 2023 Featured an incredible 96 names this year. Sad to see Barry Humphries and Jerry Springer not making the cut but I guess you can't fit everyone in.
