RIP Joe Barbera

[raigraphixs]

Noticed there was no mention on these forums (could be wrong), of the passing way of Joseph Barbera (95) yesterday (18th). Most of us grew up watching his cartoons, and gave us so much enjoyment.

With William Hanna (Hana died in 2001), he formed Hanna-Barbera, which made The Flinstones, Tom and Jerry, Johnny Quest, The Jetsons, Yogi Bear and others.
Joe Barbera died of natural causes in his home, his wife by his side.


Joseph Roland "Joe" Barbera (March 24, 1911 – December 18, 2006)
