As an ardent fan who grew up with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and countless other iconic animated series, I find myself deeply saddened by the passing of Peter Renaday. His voice was not just a sound, but a beacon that illuminated my childhood memories and brought life to characters I held dear.
Legendary voice actor Peter Renaday, well-recognized for voicing Master Splinter in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series, tragically passed away on September 8, at his residence in Burbank, California. At the time of his passing, he was 89 years old.
In simpler terms, Townsend Coleman (a friend and co-star from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles show) shared the news about Renaday’s passing. People magazine received confirmation of his death from Renaday’s representative. Later, TMZ reported that authorities found Renaday deceased in his Burbank home following a police welfare check. He died due to natural causes.
Pierre Renoudet, later known as Renaday, hails from New Iberia, Louisiana, born on June 9th, 1935. In the year 1979, he tied the knot with Florence Daniel. Sadly, she departed in 2011. For three and a half decades, Florence served as an executive secretary within the music division of Walt Disney Studios. She was also a soprano on an album titled “The Sounds of Christmas,” which was released by Disneyland Records in 1973 alongside her husband, according to Deadline.
Beyond his well-known role as Master Splinter, Renaday is known for lending his voice to several animated characters in Disney World. Specifically, he gave life to the animatronic Abraham Lincoln who delivered the Gettysburg Address in The Hall of Presidents, and also voiced the animatronic bears Henry and Max in Country Bear Jamboree.
A significant portion of Renaday’s film career encompasses around 200 roles, both on-screen and as voiceovers, in a variety of formats like live-action and animation. For instance, he lent his voice to films such as The Aristocats (1970), The Rescuers (1977) and The Black Cauldron (1985). Additionally, he worked on numerous renowned animated series, including Alvin & The Chipmunks, The Transformers, The Real Ghostbusters, Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo, and Batman: The Animated Series.
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, he also lent his voice to various live-action movies, such as “The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again,” “Combat!”, “The Love Bug,” “The Barefoot Executive,” “The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes,” among others.
Following the announcement of Renaday’s passing, an outpouring of sympathies poured in from friends and colleagues such as Townsend Coleman, Cam Clarke, Sam Kwasman, and Ike Eisenmann via social media platforms.
Coleman expressed deep sadness this morning upon learning that our beloved teacher, Peter Renaday, passed away yesterday. Peter was an incredibly authentic individual who I had the pleasure of knowing, and his absence will be felt deeply.
Apart from Sam Kwasman, he too held great admiration for Renaday. He often looked forward to their regular Sunday brunches with fellow voice actors, and it’s disheartening to think about not hearing Renaday share tales or reminisce about Disney anymore. In a poignant post on social media, Kwasman expressed his feelings by saying, “He was a kind, captivating individual and one of the most accomplished and productive voice artists in the industry. May you find peace, dear friend.
