COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Samuel E. Wright, the South Carolina native who famously voiced “Sebastian the Crab” in Disney’s “The Little Mermaid" and had an acting career spanning five decades, died this week. He was 72.
Wright died Monday in New York after a three-year bout with prostate cancer, according to his family's obituary.
“My beautiful, strong, loving daddy is off to his next adventure,” one of Wright's daughters, Dee Kelly, wrote Tuesday on Facebook. “My heart has so much to say but I’m still processing the fact that the light that was and is my daddy will not be able to physically be here with me.”
