We have some sad news to share with the Seibertron community tonight. Morgan Lofting, who voiced Moonracer in the G1 cartoon, has passed away at the age of 84, as reported by the Hollywood Reporter. Ms. Lofting unexpectedly passed away at her home in California on Wednesday November 27th, the day before Thanksgiving (in the U.S.), said her agents.
While she was known to the Transformers community as the voice of Moonracer (and possibly Firestar), one of her biggest roles was that as the voice of the Baroness in the GI Joe cartoon.
She leaves behind her family and friends, to whom we give our sincere and heartfelt condolences. Thank you for being a happy part of the childhoods of so many, Ms. Lofting. Rest peacefully.

I'd heard stories about her appearances at BotCon, and now I regret not being able to go even more.
One old college pal of mine with a shrine to The Baroness in his basement must be heartbroken right now.
RIP

Ooof this hurts. History will never fully appreciate what her, Susan Blu, and the other actresses from GI Joe accomplished breaking down real barriers in the 1980s.
