It's 5 a.m., and I haven't been able to sleep, but this brought tears to my eyes.
From the Wiki article on lyricist Howard Ashman:
"Ashman died on March 14, 1991, at age 40, during the making of both 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Aladdin'. Ashman and Menken had finished the songs for 'Beauty and the Beast', but Tim Rice was brought in to finish Aladdin songs with Menken. 'Beauty and the Beast' was dedicated to him with the following:
To our friend, Howard,
Who gave a mermaid her voice,
and a beast his soul.
We will be forever grateful.
Howard Ashman
1950-1991"
