Walter Elias Disney.
You passed before i was born.
You were the Grandfather I never had.
You always looked forward.
Your heart was always in the past.
You shaped more lives than you could ever know.
You added such joy to my Sunday nights, even when it was in black and white.
You opened my imagination and took me on adventures.
You lived your life to the fullest, never accepting the accepted.
Never before has such a simple man shaped so much of the world. I still get a shiver when i see him or hear his words. He was truly visionary, driven, and genuine. He seemed to live exponentially.
I often wonder just where "Disney" would be if he only had a few more years. He was always on the cutting edge, never a quick fixer, imagine what HE could do with today's technology.
We miss you Walt. I miss you.
Thank you Walt- you left the world a better place.
