Richard "Dick" Beals (March 16, 1927 – May 29, 2012

(AP) The radio and television voice-over star whose work included the animated characters Gumby and Speedy Alka-Seltzer died Tuesday, May 29 in Southern 
California. Dick Beals was 85. 

A friend, Peter Gorman, tells the Los Angeles Times that Beals died in the
northern San Diego County community of Vista.

Beals was the original voice of the title character on "The Gumby Show" in the
late 1950s. He also was the unseen pitchman in more than 3,000 commercials
for such products as Oscar Mayer and Campbell’s Soup.

He was also the voice of the Davey in the television series "Davey and Goliath."

Beals often got jobs that called for him to sound like a child because he suffered
from a glandular condition.

His voice hadn’t changed since elementary school.
