    The Big Book of DeathList's Great mistakes

    Found some mistakes from earlier lists: Listing someone who was never on the list in the obits section: Unless he was on the missing 1988 list, I have no idea why Graham Greene is mentioned. Mobutu Sese Seko is the only post-1996 hit that didn't get an obit. And just like Bette Davis and Wilfrid Brambell, Arthur Marshall was another posthumous name- he died in 1989 and made an appearance in 1992.
