    According to this reddit post, Joliet Harris who played Caroline Massey in The Wire died last week.

    Another day, another reddit post announcing the death of an actor from The Wire. This time it's Al Brown who played Stan Valchek. Curious how the character has his own wiki page but the actor doesn't, must be very rare.

    Ancient Finnish political leader Ele Alenius might or might not make an appearance at the yearly meeting of incumbent Left Alliance parliament members and former Left Alliance and SKDL parliament members this week (it has been exactly one year since the last time), but as he failed to appear at his 97th birthday celebration in June I doubt he will. Sad to see him decline, truly a great politician and human, respected by nearly all current politicians beyond party lines (arguably) unlike any other living Finnish politician.

    SKDL's former Members of Parliament  Mikko Ekorre (1941) and Veikko Saarto (1934) were already too ill to attend it the last time it was held, a year ago.

     

    Ele Alenius has died.

    Only one of the Gigante brothers left alive – Louis Gigante (wiki), who was a Catholic priest and stayed out of organised crime but is alleged to have sexually abused young boys. I can't find an age for him anywhere.

     

    Louis Gigante Dies at 90.

    Oldest person in the Nordic countries is now Finnish supercentenarian Astrid Qvist, two years younger, who is also currently the only Nordic supercentenarian. Oldest Swedish person is now 109-year-old Gunborg Hancock, who will be 110 in five days.

     

    Astrid Qvist dead at 110.

  5. With these super old people, I'm always interested in who were alive at the same time as them. Looking at wikipedia I noticed that Alois Hitler (Adolf's daddy) died a day after Kane Tanaka was born!
