Sad Day in Oz

Recently another of the Munchkins from The Wizard of Oz (my favorite movie) died. Mickey Carroll died on May 7, 2009, at the age of 89. We had the privilege of meeting Mickey at the Ozfest in Chittenango, NY (Oz author L. Frank Baum's hometown) in June 2006. He performed a little gig for us when we met him and seemed quite vivacious for his status as an octogenarian. We're glad we got to meet him. I believe that puts the known surviving munchkin total at five. Mickey's fellow Munchkin Clarence Swensen died in February at 91.
