June deserves this for her many indelible screen performances, for her tireless work as an Academy Governor, and for her behind-the scenes work to maintain the Best Cartoon Short Oscar and help establishing the Best Animated Feature award.
As a voice actor myself, June is a constant inspiration to all of us and A true icon of the medium. June, more than just about any other voice actor in the business, deserves this honor and I hope the Academy will consider giving her the award. Love you, June!
June Foray has played most of the great female cartoon characters over the past 100 years, and a lot of the male ones, too. Anyone who loves cartoons loves her, even if they don't know it. Give her an Oscar so they do know.
I think she deserves the Honorary Oscar. She's the voice of characters from my parents' childhood to mine and my sister's childhood. She's even older than Betty White. Plus, I think it's time that voice-over artists, that aren't big-time Hollywood Celebrities, started getting Oscars as well.
Ms. Foray brought countless hours of hilarity and fun to millions of kids (and adults!) over the years. Her voiceovers were never given credit by the studios. Let's honor her contributions now! Thank you, Ms. Foray!

She is an iconic American voice actor unlike any other. I bow down to her skill set. She deserved an Oscar back when she turned 90 yrs old, at least. Please give her an Oscar while there’s still time for her to enjoy it!
