Joe Alaskey – Cancer

Joe Alaskey succeeded the legendary voice talent Mel Blanc, who was famous for giving life to iconic cartoon characters such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Sylvester the Cat, Tweety Bird, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Foghorn Leghorn and many more! Alaskey did not just take over the voicing of these characters, he also had other TV show and film credits to his name.

Not only that, but he also lent his voice in a number of video games! He was considered one of the best voice actors of all time. Sadly, he passed away in February 2016 from cancer.
