Well known people who died recently

Jump to new
R.I.P. John Glenn.

May you find a nice cosy Star to rest on, or even your own galaxy.
The "City of Light" remembers you.
 
R.I.P. Zsa Zsa Gabor

A truly cultured Lady and consummate actress, passed away one year short of a century.
Long will she be remembered for her wit and beauty (in no particular order).
 
Singer George Michael has died aged 53

The star, who launched his career with Wham! in the 1980s and later continued his success as a solo performer, is said to have "passed away peacefully at home".

Bowie, Prince, Glenn Frey and now George Michael...

His 1998 video for the song "Outside" poking fun at his arrest 6 months earlier was one of my favourites. I was in hospital at the time spending 6 weeks in traction after busting my pelvis and that video was playing a few times a day on MTV. The self deprecating humour in the video always made me smile

"Father Figure" has special meaning too. My car broke down half way between SA and Qld when I was driving up to see my kids for Christmas. I had that song playing in my head and it kept me going and battling to find my way up there before Christmas day. I was very broke at the time (in more ways than one) and always remember the people who helped me get there.

Don Mclean sang about the "day the music died". 2016 will go down as the Year the music died
 
So many passing away as the years go by...

RIP George Michael.
Thanks for the music.

Wham was our first pop concert, a friend was working at Bass outlets at the time.
 
Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia ) has also just passed away.....
 
The actress Debbie Reynolds ( singing in the rain star) has passed away one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher....
 
That's a heart breaking story right there.

(OT) I remember the case about Stephanie Scott last year and her father died later in a freak accident this year. Sad.
 
Hyme has passed on:

Dick Gautier, who is best known to baby-boomers as Hymie the Robot in “Get Smart,” died Friday in Los Angeles of pneumonia, according to his daughter, Denise. He was 85.
