It’s a sad day for radio, cartoons, and my childhood. Rest in peace.
“US radio personality Casey Kasem, who also lent his distinctive voice to the character Shaggy in the Scooby Doo cartoons, has died at 82.
“”Early this Father’s Day morning, our dad Casey Kasem passed away surrounded by family and friends,” his daughter, Kerri Kasem, said in a statement posted online.
“”Even though we know he is in a better place and no longer suffering, we are heartbroken.”
“Kasem, whose final years were marked by dementia, was famed for his unmistakable tenor voice – also heard on thousands of commercials and television announcements.”
