Joe Barbera, Cartoonist, 1911 - 2006
Joe Barbera, half of the Hanna-Barbera animation team that produced such beloved cartoon characters as Tom and Jerry, Yogi Bear and the Flintstones, died Monday, a Warner Bros. spokesman said. He was 95.
Last night, I saw a breaking news bulletin from the Grey DeLisle MySpace team announcing that legendary cartoonist Joe Barbera had passed away.
To read more about this story, a detailed obituary is available at Yahoo! News here.
If any of you would like to pay homage to Joe Barbera, you are welcome to leave a comment on this post.
Sincerely,
