Very impressive compilation there Stuie. How long did that take you? I read about some of them because I'd heard of them, sad to hear of some of their passings. I suppose, to be honest, that if a list like this were made every year, there would come out to be a similar amount of "celebrity" deaths yearly. Maybe with some years having more and some less but overall it's probably on a bell curve and this year is just on the higher part than last or something.
