RIP and thoughts for his family.

Growing up in the 1960s and 1970s was a really special time for children's cartoons, and the Christmas specials were special for kids then.

So unfortunate. I remember the name and voice of Peter Robbins. RIP

If a kid is going to work as a performer in Hollywood, you would think that voice(s)-only acting would be among the safest and better paying jobs with very few negative consequences later on.

I was born in 1963.
The cartoon specials, especially the Christmas specials, from that period are still the best:

Charlie Brown Christmas
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
Santa Clause is Coming to Town
The Little Drummer Boy
Frosty The Snowman
