Richard M Sherman, who won two Oscars for his work on Mary Poppins with sibling Robert B, had an age-related illness.
The Disney composers' other classics included The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers, regularly used in Winnie The Pooh features, and I Wanna Be Like You and Trust In Me from Jungle Book in 1967.
Richard was held up as one of the world's most prolific and enduring composer-lyricists and a key member of Walt Disney's inner circle of creative talents.
He received nine Academy Award nominations during his 65-year career, sharing two with Robert for Chim Chim Cher-ee and the full 1964 Mary Poppins soundtrack. It also included Walt Disney's favourite Feed The Birds and Jolly Holiday, from the film's cartoon carousel sequence.
