    I always enjoyed Mickey’s combination of wide-eyed innocence and wise-cracking smart aleck. As he got older I found that both of those were tempered by a kind of wisdom gained by having been everywhere and done everything. He was always a very interesting guy to watch and listen to. Thanks

    So multi talented. He could sing, dance, do slapstick, serious roles and comedic roles. He and Judy were a dynamite pair!

    He was a great talent in everything he done. Enjoyed him in Boy’s Town as well as other movies. He may have been little but he was mighty in all he done.

    I loved meeting him at the grand opening of his yogurt store in Thousand Oaks. We worked at Komedy Radio where he was running his ads for the store. He came to the station to do his own voiceovers for the radio ads. He was in control of everything. He may have not been tall, but his personality was big! He was wonderful entertainer, actor, dancer, and businessman.

    • Annmarie Gatti says:

      Wow, that is very cool… And doesn’t surprise me at all — he seemed like the consummate professional. Thanks so much for sharing, and for entering the contest…and Good Luck!

  8. I always loved his amazing energy, enthusiasm, athleticism, and versatility, including acting and musical talents.

  9. I’ve always loved the fact that he was so multi-talented! There was nothing he couldn’t do.
