There was another one somewhere on the "John Ritter Has Died!" thread (or maybe a different one) where there was a much longer list....Nell Carter died in January and I don't see her name up there.

I went through IMDb - there were well over two hundred names up there - and I was just trying to skim for the big ones - I know I missed a few. There have just been so many.

That's really too bad. I hate how people die, I just wish there was some way we could all live forever.

You put a lot of celebrities died this year, Liza. I remember Gregory Hines died last month. He sang a duet with Luther Vandross on a song called "There's Nothing Better Than Love". I have that song on vinyl. Bob Hope died since July. I have a few old time radio shows featuring Bob Hope and a movie called "Seven Little Foys". I know John Ritter and Johnny Cash both died last week. Gregory Peck died back on June 12th a day before the Olsen Twins' 17th birthday. I have "Lullaby of Christmas" narrated by Gregory Peck along with "The Littlest Angel" narrated by Loretta Young also died just a couple of years ago. Both of these stories I have on cassette. Barry White was gone. I heard all of Barry's songs on the radio and he used to be a spokesperson for Lenny Green's "Kissing After Dark" on Kiss-FM 98.7 in New York City. Buddy Hackett died about a month ago. He did a voice of the seagull in Disney's "The Little Mermaid" and he also starred in "The Love Bug", another Disney movie. That's that!
