I know some of you don't venture into the News and Rumors section of the forums, but thought this would also be relevant to the Imagineering section.

Marty Sklar, one of the most famous and beloved Imagineers passed away last night. Such a sad thing to happen and I wish his family the best. :( His contributions to the Walt Disney Imagineering included so many classic attractions and parks.

“He was one of the few people that was fortunate to attend the opening of every single Disney park in the world, from Anaheim in 1955 to Shanghai just last year. We will dearly miss Marty’s passion, skill and imaginative spark that inspired generations of Cast, Crew and Imagineers.”
