Sad To Report. . . .

. . . the passing of Paul Winchell. No, not the donut guy, but the brilliant ventriloquist who created memorable characters in the form of puppets Jerry Mahoney and Knucklehead Smiff.
He was also the voice of Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.
Mahoney and Smiff were interviewed about Paul's passing, but had no comment.
