He didn't realize how much joy he gave to the world just portraying Genie in Aladdin. How many kids grew up and grow up watching that movie around the world? Anybody remember Disney's tribute to him? They tweeted a picture of Aladdin and Genie and the words "Genie you're free". So much love. I just wish he had known before the illness took his mind. Geesh. I'm puddling up here.
