David Mumford, Imagineer.....

[ShanenLuvsDsny]

There is an article in the new issue of Disney Magazine about David Mumford, an Imagineer, who recently past away at the age of 46. I've heard of him before too, and I was just wondering if anyone knew how he died? That's such a young age - it's so sad. He seemed like a really great guy.

He died of non-Hodgkins lymphoma

I just read this myself...would have loved to meet him.

OH MY GOD!!! NO!!!!

He's amazing! He did the Imagineering book and also did work on Test Track and others! He, I think, was a show writer!

HE WILL BE MISSED!!!

Yeah, he passed away about seven months ago. I think there was a thread here about it, as well as stories on many other Disney-related sites. A real tragedy.

I believe I've also seen a thread about him on some other forums, and it seemed like he was a great imagineer.
