    From Cleric To Relic

    Sir Creep, Bishops do not wear their mitres at many points during the Mass including the elevation (pictured above) also it is a semi-common, but personal, practice to lower ones head during the elevation as a sign of respect.

    Mark E Smith

    I don't think this question was adequately answered. Though the list has been successful three times in the past with number 50, this is the first time number 50 has been the first to die.

    Young’s death brings the number of men who walked on the moon down to five out of twelve. Beginning of the end of an era. Living astronauts should be included in future years as we lose about two a year.

    I was going over my list of still living Watergate figures and discovered that Wikipedia has Kenneth Parkinson down as having died in late 2016 but they have no citation and I can’t find one. Does anyone know if this is true?
