Ralph Kent 1939 - 2007

It is with a solemn heart that I inform you that Imagineer Ralph Kent has passed away this morning in his home in Orlando, Fl. He designed promotional materials for attractions like The Enchanted Tiki Room and training materials for the 1964-65 World’s Fair attractions. Later he became the Director of Walt Disney Imagineering East and a Corporate Trainer for the Disney Design Group. He will be missed.

How sad that Mr Anonymous would try to question the character of Mr Kent. I love all things Disney and when investigating the life of Mr Kent I found out that he became one of Jehovah's Witness' much later in life. Obviously after he worked at Disney.

If Mr Kent's early career is to be compared with his later life, I have a secret. Mr Anonymous, when he was 2 years old, pooped in his diaper! Yes, it's true. I don't see how he can live that down.

Also, who in their right mind would compare Mickey Mouse to the American Flag? That's just Goofy!

My name is Robert and I have a season pass to Disneyland.

Cheers

Mr anonymous posted the same post on another site sent from a Gary Keir. He sent that post shortly after Mr Kent's passing which insulted his family. I suggest that if Mr anonymous has an ax to grind with anything that he does it elsewhere other then over the grave of a good and decent man.Robert, your response was spot on.
