Maybe now the poor guy is at rest, away from his manipulating children.
Lost of fond memories from/of him over the many years.
RIP

I move that we rename the music thread "The Casey Kasem Memorial Music Thread".
All in favor say "aye".

Casey Kasem passed away Sunday at the age of 82 after a number of health issues.
What many people don't know is that health and nutrition were a major part of the pop icon's life and it had a huge impact on his work.
Kasem wasn't just a radio DJ. He was also a popular voice actor. Many of us growing up remember the "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!" cartoons very well. From 1969 to 1995 Kasem provided the famous voice of Shaggy, Scooby's teen owner who helped solve all those crimes.
Shaggy's character had been known throughout the years for eating everything in sight with his trusty companion and pet, Scooby. A fact that Kasem wasn't too jazzed about. He was a hardcore vegan and an outspoken advocate for the cause.
In 1995, he was asked to portray Shaggy in a Burger King commercial. Kasem was not impressed. Refusing to promote a brand that sold hamburgers, he not only wouldn't do the commercial, but he walked out on the show entirely and a role he'd been playing for decades.

Here's a YouTube clip of Kasem on Jerry Lewis' MDA telethon doing his Shaggy voice in front of a live audience:

Re: Casey Kasem has died
I don't think I ever met him, but if you remember for a while during his show, he had a segment that asked a trivia question as part of his Top 40 countdown.
One week I was the subject matter/correct answer to one of those trivia questions.
