Mickey Carroll Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 7, 2009.
ST. LOUIS – One of the last surviving Munchkins from the 1939 classic film "The Wizard of Oz" has died.

St. Louis actor Mickey Carroll died Thursday at the age of 89.

His caretaker, Linda Dodge, made the announcement Thursday.

Carroll was born Michael Finocchiaro in July 1919 in St. Louis, the son of Italian immigrants.

He was one of more than 100 adults and children who were recruited for "Oz" to play the natives of what author L. Frank Baum called Munchkin Country in his 1900 book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz."

Carroll told The Associated Press in a 2007 interview that the Munchkins made only $125 a week while filming, followed by decades of recognition.

St. Louis lost a gem when we lost Mickey Carroll. My aunt had the pleasure of knowing him personally, and when she and he found out of my love for The Wizard of Oz, he sent me an autographed card. It will always be something I will love and cherish. Rest in peace, Mickey. May the magic of Oz always be with you.

Mickey Carroll and my son at the Franklin Mills Mall around 2003. What a sweet man!!

My son and I met Mickey at the Franklin Mills Mall in PA approx. 2003. He was very nice and allowed us to snap as many photos as we needed to when he saw that I was not sure if my camera was working not.

HE IS THE LAST ONE TO REPRESENT "THE LOLLIPOP KIDS, THE LOLLIPOP KIDS, THE LOLLIPOP KIDS" AND I HOPE THIS SCRIPTURE WILL ENCOURAGE HIS FAMILY, FRIENDS AND HIS FANS "PS 147:3 HE IS HEALING THE BROKEN HEARTED ONES, AND IS BINDING UP THEIR BROKEN SPOTS"

May the God of comfort and tender mercies continue to comfort your family and friends, and may you find comfort in the words found in the Holy Scriptures: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."" Please accept my sincere condolences during this time of your loss.

For Mickey...

WEEP NOT FOR ME


Do not weep for me when I no longer dwell among the wonders of the earth; for my larger self is free, and my soul rejoices on the other side of pain...on the other side of darkness.

Do not weep for me, for I am a ray of sunshine that touches your skin, a tropical breeze upon your face, the hush of joy within your heart and the innocence of babes in mothers arms.

I am the hope in a darkened night. And, in your hour of need, I will be there to comfort you. I will share your tears, your joys, your fears, your disappointments and your triumphs.

Do not weep for me, for I am cradled
in the arms of God. I walk with the angels, and hear the music beyond the stars.

Do not weep for me, for I am within you;
I am peace, love, I am a soft wind that caresses the flowers. I am the calm that follows a raging storm. I am an autumns leaf that floats among the garden of God, and I am pure white snow that softly falls upon your hand.

Do not weep for me, for I shall never die, as long as you remember me...
with a smile and a sigh.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. "The Wizard of Oz" is an annual get together with my daughter as we watched it as she has grown. He was the last but i'm sure they all were waiting at the end of the "yellow brick road" for him to join them. God Bless the family.

The Wizard of Oz was THE FAVORITE MOVIE at my house when I was a kid. We watched it every year. I don't know who enjoyed it the most, us eight kids or my Mom and Dad. Even after I was grown, (I'm 55 now)and married, we would take our son and go to my parents house the night it was on and watch it with them. I have us on video watching it and you can hear Dorthy singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." God Bless the Munchkins, I hope they are reunited in Emerald City,in the land of Oz, Somewhere Over the Rainbow, with Dorthy, Scarecrow, The Tin Man, The Cowardly Lion, Toto and even the old wicked witch whom I was so scared of as a kid, God bless you all. Thanks for the wonderful memories.

I only met him once at a lecture he gave on the movie. He was funny and very sweet. Later I found out we frequented the same IHOP where I heard many stories of his endless kindness and generosity.

May your family be blessed and comforted by God's love and may you rest peacefully.

I thoroughly enjoyed the childhood memories that this great movie and of this great man and fellow "munchkins" contributed. He (along with others) are now following the yellow brick road! I am now 58 yrs old and I still enjoy this great movie when I catch it on cable. We salute everyone that followed the Yellow Brick Road all the way to Emerald City and then back to Kansas! May the memories be as sweet to the future generations as it is to the past ones. Long live the Wizard of Oz!!

That movie was always special to me when I was growing up and it came on maybe once a year, then when my daughter was growing up and videos were available it became almost and obsession with her, I enjoyed watching it with her numerous times, and I finally got to see the Flying Monkeys and the Wicked Witch, without feeling the need to hide behind my Mother. I was proud my daughter was not scared by them like I had been. Thank you for being a part of my daughter's, and my childhood and hopefully maybe my grandaughter's too. It will be interesting to see if she is enthralled as we were.

May 17, 2009

Thank you sir for being a part of my life,the movie you were in, was and always will be a special treat of real entertainment at the very best for myself, and many others that have yet to see "The Magic of The Real Wizard of Oz".

Mickey was such a terrific guy and friend. We in Marshfield, Missouri were honored to call him our special friend and we were even more honored to have inducted him into the Missouri Walk of Fame in 2006. Long before the tribute in Hollywood, he was remembered and appreciated in his home state. There are several pictures of Mickey on the Marshfield Cherry Blossom website, there is a nice tribute there as well.

Bless your soul.

I had the pleasure to meet Mickey at the City Museum a few years back. He spent time looking at my photo's that I had of my livingroom which is decorated with Wizard of Oz memorabilia. He was very impressed and didn't try to rush me off.
He loved to talk to people.
I have a photo of myself with him that I cherish.
He was a wonderful man and will always be remembered.
St. Louis won't be the same without him.
Rest in Peace Mickey!
