Did he die in 2013 or 2014?
What a shame. The original voice for Shredder is still the best after all these years. |

Here is the unfortunate source...
http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/01/showbi...es-avery-obit/ He is the first of the cast to die. He just had a 65th birthday if I am not mistaken. What was the cause of death? Today we begin the year without The Shredder. I wanted to hear his voice on the Nicktoon so bad. *sigh* A classical actor and true gentleman. He will be missed. A plaque should be placed in his honor on the website he created.

Just read this, this really saddens me. He was a great man, and a wonderfull voice actor. Shredder forever. My condoleances to his family, friends, fans and fellow voice actors.
R.I.P James Avery (November 27, 1948 - December 31, 2013)

Well it seems The Shredder has unfortunately been finally shredded. RIP James Avery. You were awesome as Uncle Phil and Shredder. Sad day for not just fans of the 87 show but for every Turtles fan. Avery was and always will be one true the Shredder (And that's not a knock against other Shredders I'm just referencing the line often uttered by his 2003 counterpart if you're confused). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBv8TPRcJJM
