bert425 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 lost two today: the original Marilyn Munster, Beverley Owen (she played Marilyn for 13 episodes before quitting and being replaced by the better known Pat Priest) and the one that hit me a bit harder, as I was a big fan: R.I.P. Mark Hollis from Talk Talk Founding Member, main songwriter, and lead singer. [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bert425 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 probably won't mean a whole lot but to those of us "of a certain age" but R.I.P. Miss Doris Day https://www.apnews.com/b9a04d9ab2ce4276b2f6bdb6b39af585 she was well known for her "good girl" parts in films, her singing, and her daytime talk show. likely her most famous recording, which I grew up hearing my Mother listen to over and over. . she LOVED this song: [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] although her cover of this, was a big hit too: [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 ^ Her passion for saving animals small and big (horses) is what I remember of Doris Day, too. My fave movie of hers that I remember actually going to see a few times, was "The Glass Bottom Boat." And the ones with Rock Hudson, too. RIP Doris Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottiemon Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Tim Conway, age 85. Us older farts will know him very well, as someone who kept us in stitches for just trying to make Harvey Korman break character. The Dentist is still, to this day, one of the funniest sketches ever.

tinaalsgirl Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 You know, we've lost a lot of great people over the last year or so, but it feels so different from 2016... Probably because while we're losing legends, we're losing them to old age rather than cancer or heart attack or stroke or whatever. These older actors are people I grew up watching, so it's sad to see them go, but it's nice to know that they got to live long full lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cparkes92 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Before Diahann Carroll and Jessye Norman, we lost rock and roll icons Eddie Money "The Money Man" and Ric Ocasek (of the Cars). Both had quite a bit of coverage on a national level, but Money's death was breaking news in Michigan (for over 25 years, he was the opening act for each season at DTE Energy Music Theater, the primary outdoor concert venue in Michigan; also, he seemed to play in Michigan at least five times every year (and probably more some years)) TL: DR, Eddie Money was to Michigan as David Hasselhoff was to Germany (in the late 1980s/early 1990s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
