                               Walt Disney’s Eulogy

                               Read By: Roy Disney

      Walter (Walt) Elias Disney was my youngest brother. He was a really great
man. He was the founder of The Walt Disney Company. I am the co-founder of
both The Walt Disney Company which used to be Walt Disney Productions. When
we moved to Marceline, Missouri he started to love drawing with one of the
neighbors, he was a retired doctor named “Doc” Sherwood. Doc Sherwood payed
Walt to draw pictures of his horse. He also developed an interest in trains in
Marceline. Walt would put his ear up to the tracks to her an upcoming train. The
he would try to spot Uncle Mike conducting the train.

       When we moved to Kansas City Walt and our sister Ruth attended the
Benton Grammar School. Walt also attended Saturday courses at the Kansas City
Art Institute. Our father got a job in Chicago and we had to move back. So in the
fall Walt began his freshman year at McKinley High School and he took night
courses at the Chicago Art Institute. He dropped out of high school to join the
army when he was 16. But they rejected him because he was too young. So he
joined the Red Cross.

      He was sent to France to drive an ambulance for a year. After a year he
moved back to Chicago to begin his art career. He was a really great brother. I will
always love and miss him.
