Voice actor Jack Angel has died

[Bidoofdude]

It’s pretty mind blowing that these deaths are only gonna keep coming faster and faster. We might not have much of the original cast left in the next decade.

They are getting quite old, when you think that the first season of the cartoon was 37 years ago... and if the voice actors were at least 20 years old back then, none would be under 60 years now.
Jack Angel was one of the older ones too, as he was mid-50s when he started voicing Transformers (from season 2).

We have lost so many Gen1 character voices now...

Unfortunately there's another one to add to that list. Norm Alden, who did the voice of Kranix in the movie died back in 2012.
