    If you want yet another very ill Orthodox leader, Irenaios of Crete (Greek wiki) who was the Archbishop of Crete from 2006-2021, has suffered from ALS for years, was seriously ill in 2020 with respiratory failure and underwent tracheotomy. He's 89! I think it's pretty impressive he's survived so long with ALS and a tracheotomy. Not to be confused with Irenaios of Jerusalem, 140th patriarch of the Greek Orthodox Church of Jerusalem 2001-2005 who suffers from a serious chronic lung disease and had pulmonary edema in 2019. Has needed an oxygen tank for atleast three years.

    Constantine II is very ill, long history of ill health including severe stroke in 2018 and heart attack in 2019 and now on oxygen. I'm suprised he even looked that great in those new pictures as he hadn't been seen since around December 2021 when he was in critical condition with pulmonary edema/pneumonia.

As a priest he participated in missions in Kosovo, Bosnia, Abkhazia, Kyrgyzstan, in the North Caucasus and Syria. He has 11 parachute jumps to his credit.

    I just added your 2nd recent golfer fatality to the scoreboard. I had to find a 3rd yahoo article after two previous ones didnt allow for the uk.news.yahoo URL. So yeah, Dow Fürstenberg (?) is in, just barely, but he's in. Peter Butler though is likely lost. Edit: Lol, I called him Fürstenberg, but his name is Finsterwald. There are two towns surrounding Berlin called Finsterwalde and Fürstenberg. Guess I chose the wrong one. Ah, also, while I update the DDP scoreboard via database, the Theme Team standings need to be updated manually on the website by Death Impends. She usually does it once every month or so.

    Deathrace Form Guide #21 Edna Child Aw, y'know, surely we all watched in rapt awe as she sailed gracefully through the air on the way to two gold medals at the Empire Games (yeah, because Britain still bossed a ton of territories) in 1950. Well, assuming you were otherwise engaged forging ration coupons or waiting to be born a few decades later, you can thank JoeMoneypenny for giving the obitable centenarian a public fingering in the post above.
