I just came over here to post it. I will share what I did on the other site:

The man who holds the record for longest acting career in Hollywood has passed this evening. Cause is unknown as of this post. He was perfectly fine for a 93 year old when he saw Jay Leno off back two months ago. This is personal for me as only so many celebrity death are. I met him back in October 2005 when he and his wife put on a show to open a Pennslyvania based department store that opened in my area. I actually got to hold conversation with a legend!

I know him as Andy Hardy, the role that made him known in his youth. Also for his voice work as Santa Claus in many specials and for an appearance towards the end of Full House which he played a srooge shop owner on Christmas Eve. There is also his role in Breakfast At Tiffany's and one of an ensemble in one my favorite films Its A Mad, Mad, Mad,Mad World. Two co-stars died recently Sid Caesar,sketch comedy pinoneer and comedic legend Jonathan Winters a pinoneer of improv comedy. In the last decade he played a part as a rogue watchmen in Night of The Musem and appeared in the first film of The Muppets reboot. Mickey lived a long life but nothing has been known about poor health so its shocking. The mad world lost a little joy this day.

Yep, Mickey is a legend for sure. I also remember he starred in Disney's Pete's Dragon, too. He will definitely be missed.

Christmas isn't gonna be the same anymore. Mickey had voiced Santa Claus on...

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
The Year Without A Santa Claus
Rudolph & Frosty's Christmas In July
A Miser Brothers Christmas

I also remember him doing a cameo in a 1981 CBS tv-movie, Senior Trip, that starred Scott Baio.

You will be missed.
