Goodloe Sutton died in September. Good riddance. Lorraine Day apparently died last month. Edit: As you know, Saudi Arabia is quite a hell on earth to live for most. Here's a list of Saudi clerics who are old/ill: • Abdulaziz Al Sheikh (1940/1943) Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia. Blind since god knows when and looks like a reanimated corpse. Hates ISIS, chess and the Iranian leadership, approves girls marrying at 10, says churches in Arab countries should be demolished. Mostly a mouthpiece of the Saudi leadership. • Saleh Al-Fawzan (1933/1935) Possibly most senior scholar and very powerful ultra-hardliner. Decrepit and rumored dead multiple times since 2013. On EMAN Network's extremists list. • Rabee al-Madkhali (1931/1933) "Imam of Criticism and Praise". Peaked in the 1990s and rotting in recent years. Says taking photographs is haram which is why not a lot of new images of him exist. Quite a cunt and as the above on EMAN's extremist list. • Abdul-Rahman al-Barrak (1930/1934/1935) Praised by Osama...censored even by the Saudi leadership which tells how much of a extreme bigoted asshole he is. Wants women who drive to be sentenced to death. • Ali ibn Abdur-Rahman al Hudhaify (1947) youngest of the larger names, but already looks quite frail • Abdallah Ben Abdel Mohsen At-Turki (1940) "Liberal". As in not more conservative than the Saudi leadership. • Abdullah bin Sulaiman Al Manea (1930) Oldest of the bunch since last year but remarkably well for someone in his 90s. • Abdullah al-Khunaizi (1931) In failing health last year, but has been ill since a heart surgery in 2005.

Sent home to die.

A few more future miracle recoverers: Malaysian actor Isma Aliff in critical condition, induced coma following heart & lung infection and stroke. Indian actress Hema Chaudhary critical and unstable following stroke. In addition Pakistan's most notable Ayatollah Bashir al-Najafi, one of the Four Najaf Grand Ayatollahs (all 3 living have been very ill for ages) was in ICU last week with heart problems but has been discharged. Quite frail however. Alexander Mitta now unable to talk, needs 24/7 care and they've revealed he's suffering from advanced kidney cancer. Doesn't sound too serious.

Thanks for running this again, here's my mostly unresearched list. Abdul Taib Mahmud Alan Alda Brian Blessed Cesar Virata Derek Draper Erwin Schild Frank Field Garfield Sobers Irenaios (former Patriarch of Crete) Jacob Rotschild Jimmy Carter Moses Ali Ratan Tata Sheikh Salem Al-Ali Al-Sabah Steve Gaines Swami Smaranananda joker Tep Vong Tom Willett Wang Huo Yury Solomin Subs Jayapataka Swami William Russell Russ Tamblyn

Jiang Ping was one of the quite liberal "three elders on the Chinese rule of law" with Li Buyun (李步云) who's 90 and Guo Daohui (郭道晖) who's 95. I recall googling Daohui as he was on Du Daozheng's birthday greetings list a few months ago and he has looked frail for years.

Finnish actress and local master chef VIP competitor Olga Temonen (imdb) says she has inoperable stage four brain cancer: https://www.is.fi/viihde/art-2000010066027.html

He doesn't have an English wiki page but with Josip Manolic there's Ivan Mišković Brk, Yugoslav spy boss, Tito aide and good friend of Manolic who's also 104 next year. Also Schild has been on oxygen for atleast eight years now. Others who I'd say are quite "overdue": 1. Marianne, Princess zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn: 105 next year, hospitalised with covid in 2021 or 2022 and completely bedbound since. 2. Addold Mossin: 105 next year, decrepit 7 years ago. 3. Arnold Yarrow: 104 next year, I recall a forum user saying he was very ill and must've been 2 years since that 4. Mani Kumar Chetri: 104 next year, rumored dead this year, very frail for years. 4. Zeynep Korkmaz: 103 next year, decrepit in 2021, on oxygen in August. 5. Betty Reid Soskin: 103 next year, suffered a massive stroke in 2019 that she wasn't expected to recover from 6. William Leuchtenburg: 102 next year and frail, possibly demented on his 100th. 7. Phan Wannamethee: 101 next year, wheelchairbound and very frail Of course there's also Vic Seixas, Yuriko Mikasa etc.

I'm genuinely suprised that Emir Nawaf wasn't picked in the DDP but,suprise, Sheikh Salem is on a team. It'll be interesting to see if Mishal meets with him...Salem is still the Commander of the National Guard of Kuwait (a position he's held since he founded the National Guard in 1967) and when Sabah died three years ago Nawaf held meetings with him. Similar thing going on in Kuwait. 4 out of the 5 Emirs in Kuwait during the last 45 years have been sons of Ahmad Al-Jaber who's been dead for nearly 74 years now. Mishal is the last of his prominent sons. I think they'll sooner or later make the current Prime Minister (Emir Nawaf's son who's only 67 and has only held major positions since Nawaf made him deputy commander of the National Guard in 2020) the Crown Prince, but there seems to be fears the Muslim Brotherhood will take over* and also seems a chance for a power struggle within the royal family that could get nasty especially if Mishal dies soon. Edit: Back when he was hospitalised, I was reading some articles from other Arab/Kuwaiti news sources that claimed a coup against the monarchy could happen if Nawaf died. They did also say "if Nawaf died unexpectedly" and there was nothing unexpected about his death. Officially these claims were dismissed as fearmongering but it seems the most unstable of the GCC countries. Edit 2: Sheikh Mubarak who died this year was the penultimate living member of Kuwait's first cabinet (1962). The last living is none other than that fucking Sheikh Salem, of course.

Thank you, I greatly appreciate your efforts. I'll try to get these names added to the main list in the following weeks.

So only Tommy Brown, Carl Erskine and Bobby Shantz left? Here's... Carl Erskine pictured yesterday. Bobby Shantz this month. Most recent image I could find of Brown from a year ago.

General Moses Ali (middle) at OIC meet last week. There are more images on twitter and facebook. Google his name and compare to images from some years ago. Death warmed up.

Well, it's been a month since the last one, here's a new boring list of the currently hospitalised people. Most of these will make it to 2024.* 1) Alexander Mitta (1933) Hospitalised for a month, "yo-yoing" in and out of ICU with stroke, pneumonia (atleast two times), fluid in lungs. Currently out of ICU but suffering from severe cognitive decline. Discharged to 24/7 care at home. 2) Yury Solomin (1934) Four billion different ailments since and before an "unconscious condition" hospitalisation more than a month ago but still going to be discharged soon. Discharged, then DEAAADD!! 3) Lenita Airisto (1937) Seemingly hospitalised for months now, unable to comment since atleast September, vague rumors going around that she's in coma. 4) Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain (1946) In ICU, diagnosed with sphenoid wing meningiomas some months ago. (Means severe brain tumors in English) 5) Emir Nawaf (1937) Hospitalised for three weeks in "stable condition". DEAD 6) Pravrajika Amalaprana (ca. 1935) Indian hindu leader and Sri Sarada Math General Secretary, hospitalised in October and on dialysis since, back in ICU this month with unstable heart function. DEAD 7) Aleksandra Pakhmutova (1929) Pneumonia/heart attack/flu, "out of danger" Discharged. 8) Larisa Luzhina (1939) Alleged serious heart problems. 9) Beppe Grillo (1948) To be discharged tomorrow Discharged. 10) Zdeněk Zeman (1947) Stroke, but out of danger and to be discharged soon. Discharged as expected. 11) Stenio Garcia (1932) Viral gastroenteritis, anemia, collapse, on IV meds and "serotherapy" whatever that is. Completely lucid and looks 20 years younger in a video from the hospital. Discharged again. 12) Carlos Alberto de Nóbrega (1936) Blood clot in his brain apparently due to that very serious fall last month, to undergo brain surgery. Discharged of course. 13) K. Chandrashekar Rao (1954) Serious fall and broken hip, rumored suffering from some serious chronic disease for months but has undegone a succesful surgery and to be discharged tomorrow. Indian media describes him as "ailing" Discharged. 14) Lisandro Meza (1937) Critical conditions with cerebral ischemia and stroke, now slightly improving. DEAD 15) Theary Seng (1971) The "trust me, I'm totally dying" hospitalised hunger striker activist of the month award winner for December 2023. Discharged and back to prison. *2025 if you put them on your lists.

Seems a very common thing in Russian media that there's reports of a celeb being in hospital/very ill and then a day or two later it's denied. With Pakhmutova it went from serious heart attack to pneumonia to common cold, same with many celebs. Lots of Russian 50-something actors and actresses have also been hospitalised recently in "critical condition" within the last month and a day later it's reported that they were never that ill and were there due to a scheduled surgery or something similar. A rule I've started to trust with these Russian cases is "if it's not denied within a week, it's probably true"

Norwegian drag queen, actor and writer Jakob Margido Esp (Flettfrid Andresen), dead at 80 in Gran Canaria after two weeks in artificial coma. Horrible year for drag queens it seems, but Michelle DuBarry (92), Maisie Trollette (90) and the indestructible Akihiro Miwa (88) are still alive. I'd say all three have a ~50% chance of obit, Miwa is massive in Taiwan and Japan, Guardian and Mirror have written on Maisie recently and DuBarry's been in the Guinness book of records for oldest performing drag queen.

Some drops, one returnee, some new blood. 1. Sheikh Salem Al-Ali Al-Sabah 2. Jimmy Carter 3. Taisto Tähkämaa 4. Antônio Delfim Netto 5. Driss Guiga 6. Antero Laukkanen 7. Mukarram Talabani 8. Ben Cayetano 9. Douglas Hurd 10. Cesar Virata Subs: M. N. Venkatachaliah Dick Cheney

Cesar Virata is 93. Image taken at his early birthday celebration two days ago. Sharad Pawar, major Indian politician, cricket boss and former four-time Chief Minister of Maharashtra is 83.

Naina Yeltsina reportedly hospitalised after "sharp deterioration".

Updated. Solihin GP (very old Indonesian politician and Governor, advisor of Suharto, lieutenant general) made a quite rare appearance on this video from yesterday. I mean, atleast better than what Ryan O'Neal must look like currently..

Crowdsource Form Guide #7 ? #~7/8/9/10? #112? "Frauda" Fauja Singh One of history's greatest monsters (outdone only by Jimmy Carter, DJ's who play Last Christmas by Wham! this time of the year and that one tv presenter's mom) Fauja is somewhere between 95 and 1115 years of age. Unless he's secretly an immortal jellyfish, one day he's going to be on the "Deaths in 202x" page instead of a 30-something footballer.

Taisto Tähkämaa, Finnish political relic, my perennial pick and former Minister of Defence is 99.

Sergio Corona looking quite frail but insists that he's in good health:

Khorasani...'s wife is dead. Of course it's not Khorasani, he and all the other very old ayatollahs seem to be doing fine. The frailest are probably Mousa Shubairi Zanjani (who looks like a supercentenarian Willie Nelson, heart and kidney problems, in ICU last year), Mohammad Rahmati Sirjani (never fully recovered from when he was in coma in 2021) Abdul Mahdi al-Karbalai, major cleric and Ali Al-Sistani's official representative is ill with something. He's seemingly been bedbound for a month now. Also for those interested here's an article on that Mormon Jeffrey Holland's recent health issues. He was in critical conditions during his kidney failure hospitalisation and wasn't expected to recover. Apparent assasination attempt on major Afghan cleric/warlord/politician/drug trafficker/former Prime Minister Gulbuddin Hekmatyar earlier this month. There are rumors he isn't on good terms with the Taliban currently. Hekmatyar seems to have more enemies than friends, he might end up like his predecessor Abdul Sabur Farid Kohistani or his successor Arsala Rahmani Daulat.

His (crinkly wrinkly et cetera) mother-in-law is in hospital with heart problems. (For search purposes Indira Bhaduri)

SS Galizien nazi apparently found in Nottingham but anonymous and therefore not a name for our lists, atleast yet. The Sun's investigative journalism has also found a 96-year-old in a Newark care home but there's not really much explanation if he was a nazi or if he was once seen lifting his arm up that way.
