If you don't know who she is, you wasted your youth, and your adulthood for that matter.
RIP June Foray (1917-2017)

It most certainly does take me back.
She will be missed by anyone Pre-gen-X.

Wow, she was amazingly talented!
She had a good, long life, too...she was born the same year as my pop. He lived to what I felt was a ripe old age and it feels like he's been gone forever. I would have held a little party for his 100th birthday, but it would've been close to my daughter's 18th and I didn't want to take the focus off her. I'll have to buy everybody a round of PBRs in his memory next time I'm in a bar.

Wow, brings me back a lot of years. May she RIP.
Thanks for the flashback! Back in those days, cartoons had one meaning for kids, and another one for adults. Btw, Bullwinkle went to Whatsamatta U, in Frostbite Falls, MN.
I knew she did voices for Rocky but not the Natasha and Grannie! - I hear she did Cindy Who too.
What Wonderful life!

I knew the voices well. What a collection of characters. But, didn't know her. Thanks for bringing it all together.

Ditto that. Nice collection there.

When the Man from U.N.C.L.E. DVDs came out a few years ago, I was astonished to find June had also done the sexy lady voice at the end of each episode who promised, "Our man from U.N.C.L.E. will be back in a moment with a look at next week's show." So her expertise extended beyond little old ladies and cartoon animals!
"Hey, Rocky! Watch me pull a rabbit outta my hat!"
"Again??!!"
"Nothin' up my sleeve --" (Rips off actual coat sleeve) "Presto!!!"
(Rhino head emerges and growls at Bullwinkle, who stuffs it back in the hat)
"Gee, don't know my own strength!"
"And now here's something you'll really like!"

Lots of childhood memories for me as well.

Can't we just use the wayback machine ?
She's not gone if we can remember...

Did not know the name, but knew the voice of Rocky and Granny.

I knew about the Looney Tunes stuff the most, being a big fan. She stayed active until basically the end. What a life!
