bert425 Posted December 3, 2019 Posted December 3, 2019 R.I.P. to Greedy Smith - co-Lead Singer, and main songwriter for Australian pop band, Mental As Anything. they had lots of international hits, but likely best known to club-goers in the 80's was this one (with Greedy providing vocals in the video) [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]
Nrthwnd Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Caroll Spinney ~ The voice of Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch.
tinaalsgirl Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 They say it comes in threes, and it did on the same day this time: In addition to Caroll Spinney, we also lost René Auberjonois and Juice Wrld (only 21, death from seizure). I also realized that a death we haven't acknowledged yet on this thread would be Cameron Boyce, who passed at age 20 from an epileptic seizure. And a Broadway actress, Laurel Griggs, died at only 13 from a massive asthma attack.
Nrthwnd Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Pete Frates, a sports guy who ended up with ALS, just passed away. But he inspired the ALS ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE around the world. A true American Hero, to be sure. (ALS is commonly known as "Lou Gehrig's Disease". Look it up.)

DoinItForTheFame Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 "Terry Jones, one of the British Monty Python comedy team, has died at the age of 77 after a long battle with dementia, his family said on Wednesday." RIP Terry Jones, of Monty Phython. Dies at 77.
DoinItForTheFame Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Kobe Bryant, age 41, helicopter crash. So sad. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/reports-kobe-bryant-killed-in-helicopter-crash-in-calabasas-194537553.html
isabellamor Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 It still feels surreal that Kobe is dead and so as his daughter Gigi.
Canobie Coaster Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 I was at Universal riding Hulk so my phone was in a locker when the story broke. I returned to this news. Shocking and sad.
Nrthwnd Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 My thoughts go out to all the families and loved ones, of the 9 victims of the crash.
Nrthwnd Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Kirk Douglas. He was 103! Good for him. One of my fave Disney films.

bert425 Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Albert Uderzo, co-creator of Astérix, passed today and more distressing.. we're starting to see impact from CoronaVirus on Celebrities in the past 24 hours, we've lost: Famed NY Drag Queen, Mona Foot https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/pride/9341107/mona-foot-dead-nashom-wooden-coronavirus veteran Afro-jazz legend Manu Dibango and late this afternoon, , Tony Award winning playwright Terrance McNally
Nrthwnd Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Terrance McNally was a shock to find out about. His book on the musical "Kiss of The Spider Woman" was amazing, considering the outcome of the piece. It's like the musical "Titanic" .... you know how it'll end, but the live experience is still worth the price of admission, etc. And that musical won the TONY for Best Musical, as did "Spider Woman." Along with a Best Book Win by Terrance. And before that, he wrote "Love! Valor! Compassion!" one of his best plays, ever. Starring a wonderful Nathan Lane, and equaled pretty good in the film, with Jason Alexander in the same part. Lots he wrote. Go look him up, those who don't know him.
Philrad71 Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Kenny Rogers, 81. "The Gambler" has folded. I saw someone post this on Facebook the other day and while a little crude, I have to admit that it made me laugh (which is something that we ALL need): "Kenny Rogers dippin' out in the middle of an Apocalypse is the most "Know When To Fold Them" shit I've ever seen"
CaptainUnknown Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 Stuart Gordon: Filmmaker who was most known for writing and directing the 1985 Horror film Re-Animator.
