Diane Disney Miller Dead: Walt Disney's Daughter Dies At 79

Philanthropist Diane Disney Miller, the daughter of Walt Disney, has died at the age of 79 from injuries sustained from falling down.

She was the inspiration for her father to create and open Disneyland in Anaheim, California, the original Disney theme park, in 1955, which subsequently inspired the creation of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida in 1971, and several other Disney theme parks around the world. She helped to open the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, the home of the L.A. Philharmonic Orchestra, based on the designs of architect Frank Gehry. She married former professional football player Ron Miller in 1954, who later went on to become president and CEO of The Walt Disney Company for a short time, from 1978-1984.

Yesterday dozens of my co-workers posted two things: Diane Disney Miller died, and one of everyone's favorite co-workers died. Disneyland was just full of pouty people yesterday.

Sucks.
