The outpouring of love from all these messages bring me comfort, 
and I find myself reflecting on your glorious career. I cherish 
such memories as hearing your Snow White tape for the first time, 
the thrill of the tiny cast and crew screening of Beauty and the 
Beast at the Disney lot, and of course your night of triumph, 
walking the red carpet of the Chinese Theater for the premiere 
of South Park.

And yet I know that beyond your voice career you were so much 
more. You were an avid Dodger fan who cried tears of joy when 
you watched in-person Fernando throw a "no-hitter." You read 
every Stephen King novel to date. You helped me grow tomatoes 
in the back yard and then fixed them with balsamic vinegar as 
a treat. You never missed an episode of the Outer Limits (which 
is why you got Showtime), the X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 
or any incarnation of Star Trek (you were so cute when you got 
invited to Paramount and got to have your picture taken in the 
captain's chair on the bridge of the Defiant).

You loved to go to the zoo and watch the Lemurs and big cats. 
You loved to go to Vegas and play BlackJack (and never lost a 
dime!). You loved to go to the Silent Movie house and watch 
Buster Keaton films with me. You cherished the memory of 
Lucille Ball, Gilda Radner and Carol Burnett as your heroes.

You made cornbeef and cabbage every St. Patty's day. You loved 
Halloween and all the costumes (my favorite was your Dr. Crusher 
Starfleet Uniform). You were the only girl I knew who was "into" 
the current Vampirella Comic books because you thought the art 
was awesome. You loved Meet me in St. Louis as much as you loved 
Dawn of the Dead. You thought Mystery Science theater was hysterical. 
Your cried at the end of the Fisher King, Pleasantville, and Iron 
Giant, because you thought they were beautiful.

You loved to travel. Loved Holland, Belgium and France. You loved 
Disneyland, Disney World and Disney Paris. You edited all my scripts. 
You loved cats (especially purebred Bengals). You loved opera. You 
loved Cajun food. You loved my parents as your own. You never forgot 
birthday cards or gifts for anyone. You co-executive produced my 
movie. You drove Saturns, and you collected all manner of Disney 
memorabilia.

You were, and did, all these things, and far far more than I could 
ever write in a single evening - but the single most important thing 
of all, even beyond your amazing career... you were my loving wife 
for nine of the greatest years of my life.

I am glad that your suffering is now over, and I will miss you my 
sweet gentle Mary Kay until that day when we are reunited for all 
eternity.

Your husband

Dino
