Bill Melendez, the voice of Snoopy died on Tuesday. He was 91. It's so sad. He worked on a lot of amazing things in his career from the Peanuts to Fantasia to Bambi (just to list a few)..He will be remembered.

Voice of Snoopy? I don't remember Snoopy ever speaking.

From the L.A. Times article, "Melendez supplied Snoopy's laughs, sobs and howls. Schulz insisted that as a dog, Snoopy couldn't talk. Melendez experimented with making sounds that suggested a voice and speeding them up on tape -- assuming a professional actor would do a final recording. But time ran short, and Melendez ended up serving as Snoopy's voice in 63 subsequent half-hour specials, five one-hour specials, the Saturday morning TV show and four feature films. In his later years, Melendez chuckled over the fact that he received residuals for his vocal performances."
I remember what the teacher sounded like...wah wah wah wah
