Welcome back to another Disney Stuff. Thanks for all of your feedback and responses regarding my last Stuff article, “Robert’s Stuff.” That article meant a lot to me and my wife and Robert’s wife Paula. It really was a fine way of remembering my dear friend as we come to terms with the fact that he’s already been gone for a year. Remembering Robert is remembering all of his stuff. It’s hard to separate the man from his stuff, especially Rob. He had a ton of cool stuff and loved sharing it with his friends.
When I sat down to write this next Disney Stuff article, my thoughts were still with him. After touring through Robert’s house looking through all of his great collections, I was touched by the things he had on display that I had gotten for him, and things we had found together while junk shopping. When I came home that day I looked around the house and began to remember all of the great Disney things that Robert had given to me and how having them on display and in my life will always keep him around and in my thoughts.
So, here are all the great pieces of Disney Stuff that my dear friend Robert has gotten for me over the years. They are all little pieces of him and I cherish them all.
Rob’s favorite was Jiminy Cricket and I have this Jiminy figurine from Walt Disney World that he got for me on display in our bedroom. My wife’s favorite, Tinker Bell, is nearby as well as a non-Disney favorite of all of ours, Sniffles the Mouse. (Please tell me you all remember Sniffles? My vote for most underrated animated character of all time.)
