Presidential speechwriter, Richard Goodwin, has died at the age of 86. I knew him best from portrayals of him in films such as Quiz Show and Path to War. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/richard-goodwin-speechwriter-author-dies-at-86-1115103

I actually like The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again, lol!

Not sure if previously mentioned, but the film director, Vincent McEveety, has died at the age of 88. He was best known for directing many live-action Disney films of the 70s and 80s including The Strongest Man in the World, Gus, Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo, The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again, and Herbie Goes Bananas. https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/latimes/obituary.aspx?n=vincent-m-mceveety&pid=189084513&

I love her performance of 'Candle on the Water' in the 1977 Disney film, 'Pete's Dragon':

The best Lois Lane ever, imo! https://www.telegraph.co.uk/films/2018/05/14/superman-actress-margot-kidder-dead-69/

Whoa, I just realized that regarding David Goodall, lol. Congrats @Death Impends ! Also congrats, @Clorox Bleachman!

Yeah, was just gonna suggest Barbara Windsor myself.

That is super sad!

This has made the list of my fave songs from musicals! Thanks for sharing!

I don't know how trustworthy a news source like TMZ is, but according to them, John McCain's funeral is already being planned. Again, take with a grain of salt as it is TMZ. http://www.tmz.com/2018/05/05/john-mccain-funeral-donald-trump-mike-pence/

I was wondering this myself.

Was just gonna post about Mr. Bush being in intensive care, but y'all beat me to it, lol!

I personally just don't see it that way.

Ah, I'd always wondered about that. Thanks for letting me know!

Hello all, Been a lurker on here for a few years myself and just thought I'd create an account to say "hi"! I understand the point of the Deathlist and feel you guys get some undue criticism from people who assume you all are evil people cackling maniacally as they wait for celebrities to die one by one, but I know that's not the case (at least, I hope that's not the case, lol). I know there have been many celebrities' deaths that have personally hurt many of us and that this Deathlist is more so like a "tournament bracket" or "picking the Oscar winner" sort of thing (or whatever hobby-related analogy fits your demeanor). Anyway, I just wanted to drop a greeting and hope I can get involved in the next year's Deathlist...however that works! Mark
