What websites do you frequent, Daehawk, in order to find these deaths ?

77 isn’t exactly “Spring Chicken” territory, but it’s still too young.

I was wondering the same thing. I keep imagining Daehawk reading the obituaries every day to see if he's still alive.

Mostly I come across them while perusing Blues News.

Every time I see or hear Gung Ho I think of the old WW 2 movie of the same name.

I don't think I have ever once seen you reach out to someone's spouse before like that.

Seemed to be the only family listed for him. Found it slightly sad for some reason.

I think of the forum member from Texas (who I met once).

77 is about average for males in this country; not an age I'd call out as "too soon." For the averages to continue to be average, the reaper needs to take out a 62 year old celeb to offset Stan Lee.
