His remains are being held at a mortuary until someone pays up. I believe his sister is trying to do something. Can someone at the union step in and help out? I cannot reveal my name for fear of payback.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-84163656338169368362011-02-13T01:54:02.431-08:002011-02-13T01:54:02.431-08:00Sandro, talk to Joe Campana with the blog "An...Sandro, talk to Joe Campana with the blog "Animation Who & Where", he's highly researched on animators - and he can probably tell you the address.Steven Hartleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13825398324719609394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-40759186783888232172011-02-12T16:22:16.727-08:002011-02-12T16:22:16.727-08:00I would love to meet and interview Don Lusk.

But, I sure hope that Bill got the letter on time and would've loved to reply.<br /><br />My article on the tribute is here:<br /><br />http://blabbingonartsandculture.blogspot.com/2011/02/justice-for-disney-passing-of-bill.htmlSteven Hartleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13825398324719609394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-90789760429547123382011-02-11T20:49:22.255-08:002011-02-11T20:49:22.255-08:00One hundred and going strong.
