2005 deaths
What was the biggest death out of 2005???
No doubt in my mind it had to be Peter Jennings, just this time last year he was well and now he is gone. So Tragic. Johnny Carson is probably the most notable, but he had been in failing health and was almost 80 years old, and really had not been seen in 13 years since he left the Tonight Show in 1992. |

Johnny Carson. He was so well known and legendary...the kind of person, in the back of your mind, never will die. So even if they are sick, you're still totally shocked.
