Today we meet a WDW Employee who created and designed the cemetery at WDW and plays the Madame Leota in today's Holiday Mansion, as well as whose mom's name was used and played the original Madame Leota!
Contributions of Kim Irvine
Leota Toomb's daughter Kim Irvine, now working at WED, created a rarely seen pet cemetery, once clearly visible to those entering the foyer through the side door reserved for handicapped guests and their parties. Since a wheelchair ramp was added to the front of the mansion, guests rarely see this area. This pet cemetery was popular with the few who saw it, so WDI created a larger one in the normal queue around the time the new ramp was installed. Kim Irvine, bearing a strong physical resemblance to her mother, also played Madame Leota for Haunted Mansion Holiday.
