Rest in piece Joe Ruby. You will forever be remembered as co creator of Scooby doo. I wonder if Happy Halloween Scooby Doo will have a in memory of him after the end credits.

I would guess unlikely as it is so near to release date but who knows.

It's not that hard to add an "In memory of Joe Ruby" in the end credits.

Aww a sad bit of news. But natural causes is probably the best way to go.

Maybe there will be a dedication, I highly doubt it, but all depends if the discs have already been pressed. Especially here in the UK when the release is in two weeks.

Thank you Mr Ruby for bringing us some of the best cartoons, either through your time at HB or at Ruby Spears. You will be missed.
