  I remember watching him on TV back in the 60's.
  
  Turns out he live in the same town I've lived in for the past 18 years.
  
  Sure would have like to have met him...

  The *Tigger* song is eternal! Well, at least to my kids and grandkids...

  "The wonderful thing about Tiggers

  Paul Winchell was a big part of my childhood.

  Children's entertainment was so different back then.

  He was great,
  

  Lately I've watched Disney channel (ok don't laugh) especially Winnie the pooh with my little niece. Tigger was definitely THE character. Loved him.
  

  Sleep well old friend.

  Like Blondie said........Paul Winchell was a big part of my childhood too! Watched him and the "dummies" antics every Saturday morning as a kid in the late 1950's and early 1960's.

  Did you know that he built all his "dummies"?

  He also invented one of the first and best artificial hearts that actually worked and received many accolades from the medical community.
