    Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
    If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

      She had a big hand in a lot of things I loved as a kid.

          Man, what a resume. No doubt the most prolific female voice actor. RIP.

              She was still working well into her 90s. She won an Emmy (her first) in 2012 at the age of 94 and was still voicing "Granny" and "Rocky" until 2014. Amazing lady!

                      She also voiced Aunt May from Spider-man and his amazing friends. R.I.P.!

                          Oh man... not a household name really, but one that should be. The voice of so many childhood favorites.

                              I always viewed June as the female version of Mel Blanc.
