75 y/o Beloved Voice Actress, Russi Taylor has sadly passed away as she voiced the character Minnie Mouse for more than 30 years where Minnie and Russi worked together to entertain millions around the world and will be missed by everyone.

CEO Bob Iger said "We're so grateful for Russi's talent as well as the tremendous spirit and great joy she brought to everything she did. It was a privilege to have known her and an honour to have worked with her. Russi will be sorely missed and our hearts go out to her family and friends, along with our deepest condolences"

She beat out 200 other hopefuls to voice the role in her 1986 audition and since then has appeared in hundreds of Disney projects including tv shows, theme park experiences, animated shorts and theatrical films

She met her husband, Wayne Allwine who voiced Mickey Mouse in 1977 and remained married until his death in 2009

As years went by, she got a regular voice acting role as Martin Prince as well as twins, Sherri and Terri on The Simpsons as Executive Producer Al Jean took to social media to praise her for giving life to the nerdy character in springfield. She also did the voice acting for german exchange student Uter Zorker

Many stunned fans were curious if these characters will be retired given Mrs. Krabappel's character was removed when actress Marcia Wallace passed away in 2013

There will be a long discussion between producers of The Simpsons on how they will move forward without these minor characters as new CEO Bob Iger will decide their fate but it is likely they will not have these characters no longer rather than killing them off.

Oh for god's sake. It's a fucking cartoon. Just because the actor died doesn't mean the character should. To quote the show:

Duffman can never die! Only the actors who play him.

Well this ruined my Saturday night.

How many Simpsons VAs have passed so far?

They really should end the show so everyone can have a proper retirement.

For some reason I thought there was more than that.

I mean, we could count celebrity cameos so I can be technically right!

This has always been a concern of mine, honestly.

I still enjoy the show a lot, but I have always felt they should end it while the main actors are still alive. Its easy to retire characters like Martin and Edna, but if one of the main actors were to pass? It just wouldnt work.

Always sad to see a long timer go.

The Simpsons is truly blessed it has lost so few of its cast, and of those that did, have been either mostly minor, or in Marcia Wallece's case, a singular role. These should be warning sings for the show runners as so much of the cast is done by the same 6 or so people. One of them go, and you can't write around it, and they're all 30 years older now.

Time to end it, and not just because I don't even find the Treehouse of Horror episodes funny anymore.

Any of the main family would be a show killer honestly, but imagine if any of the big guys (I think Dan Castellaneta, Hank Azaria, Harry Shearer) that do like 10+ totally unique voices died. I guess that's what it'll take to finally give the show the "Old Yeller" treatment.

I think they might get away if it was Lisa's VA. Yerdley Smith only dose the one voice regularly, and the show might weather shipping the character off to private school and losing her moralizing.
