Casey Kasem passed away on Sunday morning. He was 82.
The radio icon and voice of Shaggy on “Scooby Doo” had suffered from Lewy body disease, a progressive form of dementia, which left him unable to speak, eat or move on his own. He was transferred to hospice care in Washington state shortly before his death following a weeks-long bitter battle between wife Jean and his kids over his medical care.
