He will be sorely missed, as will Toys "R" Us. A little part of me died when I heard that the stores were all shutting down, and an even bigger part died when I found out that Charles had died the very next day.
Thank U for this. I really do love Him as the greatest Entrepreneur role model since Mr. George W. Jenkins. I have a great need to meet Mr. Charles Lazarus again. I real am named Jack Sol Freschwind. My trademarks are Bleupsychia and United Federation Of JESUS Freeks.
A true visionary ! An entrepreneur that knew what it takes to reach to the heart of his costumers, with bold business decisions, ample perspective on a child's wants and the non stop desire to become the dominant power on the toy's market. May his legacy live on, beyond the limits of the flesh, on the untouched lands of the sweetest and brightest child's memories.
If Charles never gotten old and he stayed CEO after 1998 the company would still be thriving. It's a shame things fell apart and Toys R Us is no longer around to continue this man's legacy after his recent death.
And now some clown named Dave miss managed the company took all the money, the private equity firms dumped the whole chain and wiped their hands free from the debt. Sad

When do you think this video interview was shot? I’m having trouble finding much information on him, and through ancestry.com I found that he is my 1st cousin-once removed. Thought he might be able to telling me some things about my father, who died when I was in college. Any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Same here
A wonderful interview with a wonderful human being. He was the first Toys R Us kid and I'm happy he decided to 'never grow up.' :D
Truly inspirational! Thank you for posting this Mark. It's cool to hear from the founder himself. How it all started.
It's great to see his face I am always a toysrus kid
Rest In Peace and Hope Toys R Us is a success in heaven as well
