Stan Kann
Legendary Pipe Organist and Comedic side-kick, Kann dies at age 83
Long-time pipe organist for the Fox Theatre in Saint Louis, Kann also appeared on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson 77 times and had an NBC Radio show featuring his organ music.
Bill Melendez
'Peanuts' animator Melendez dies at 91.
(AP) -- Bill Melendez, the animator who gave life to Snoopy,
Charlie Brown and other "Peanuts" characters in scores of movies and TV specials, has died.
Melendez's nearly seven decades as a professional animator began in 1938 when he was hired by Walt Disney Studios and worked on Mickey Mouse cartoons and
classic animated features such as "Pinocchio" and "Fantasia." He went on to animate TV specials such as "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and was the voice of Snoopy, who never
spoke intelligible words but issued expressive howls, sighs and sobs.
Viktor Schreckengost
1906 - 2008
The famous engineer, artist and inovator,
Viktor Schreckengost has died at the age of 101. He was a pioneer in the field of pressed steel toys and pedal cars of the 1930's and 1940's.
His designs ranged from Art Deco dinnerware to the cab-over White Truck design. The St. Louis Antique Toy Show was proud to be part of his 100th Birthday/100 Venues Celebration.
