German-British painter Frank Auerbach reportedly dead aged 93: DDP pick. Previously mentioned here, unsure if he was picked for the list though.

You're a great role model for our young members. You're a nice, patient and supportive person and always willing to help with the harvest. Thanks for your effort, @Gooseberry Crumble.

Paul Engelen (wiki), British make-up artist, dead at 75. Perhaps best known for his work on Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, but also twice Oscar nominated (Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein). Also did the make-up on The Man with the Golden Gun, The Spy Who Loved Me, Pink Floyd – The Wall, Little Shop of Horrors (1986), Gladiator, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, Die Another Day, Tomb Raider, Kingdom of Heaven, Casino Royale, The Three Musketeers, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, Batman (1989), Empire of the Sun, Wrath of the Titans, Hercules (2014), Quantum of Solace, Robin Hood (2010), Munich, Troy, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, A Midsummer Night's Dream (1999) and The Hours. What an incredible career! EDIT: Times death notice

Neither they are both shit. That’s Death is the only acceptable option using the KISS principles.

Nearly 10 years on that is former Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, as he's resigned. https://www.itv.com/news/2024-11-12/archbishop-of-canterbury-resigns-over-handling-of-church-abuse-case

He was picked in 2023. A classic.

I agree, I honestly have a feeling that Greenspan will die next year at 99, the same with Baxter, as for other choices like Pete Murray, Sandy Gall and Hans Blix I can't be too sure enough, although Murray looked good in his birthday photo, with other choices like Castro or Hackman I have noticed that they have lost a lot of weight in the last year, they were thinner, but others like Clint Eastwood and Buzz Aldrin I could honestly see them easily surviving 2025 and seeing 2026.

@MortalCaso your killing me my friend ... Alan Greenspan is one of my favorites of the list. Just have a feeling about that man this coming year for some reason.

He's actually a neighbor of mine. I saw him recently on a walk and can confirm he is alive and well. Largely keeps a low profile, as his legacy has been tarnished due to his loyalty to his brother, and his lack of co operation with Federal authorities.

Something to keep an eye on. Astronaut Suni Williams 59, has lost an alarming amount of weight in space, and is not due to return to earth until February of 2025. https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/pounds-have-melted-off-questions-swirl-around-health-mass-astronaut-stuck-space/CHSSN4RUJJBMZH2QTI2X6POX74/?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwY2xjawGfZc5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHRGl9x-mYcTDdPkDmwxRYTm2ta8dqMO37vPdD70dMrV6k9hswXhCngjV9Q_aem_ACkHl3EgkjJQCLx3TCuOyw https://nypost.com/2024/11/08/us-news/nasa-races-to-stabilize-astronaut-sunita-williams-weight/

And I am still hoping that I will be able to contribute to that effort and grand total even at this late stage...!

I saw him while walking around Bury St. Edmunds today. Nothing much to report, really, except that he was making use of a motorised wheelchair, but that may just be due to his age. Not that he's much in contention for it, but I wouldn't advise dropping him next year.

Jürgen Becker has died. No, not Jürgen Becker the comedian, kabarett artist and actor. And no, not Jürgen Becker the state secretary. It's also not Jürgen Becker the jurist and academic. And no, not Jürgen Becker the theologian. It's Jürgen Becker the writer and poet. https://www.spiegel.de/kultur/literatur/schriftsteller-juergen-becker-ist-gestorben-a-e1baab11-11f4-4368-bdfd-33920da4a852 And when his son dies, things get interesting again, because his name happens to be Boris... but no, not this one...
