Former Cleveland Cavaliers coach David Blatt in a wheelchair. MS must be advanced by now since he announced it in 2019. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02GDy9J1YAvaXcvwt8WbhKciti5sLKGcyHfvz1yRr82nbdoQJRqTBqBHeRxTFZ77sNl&id=100077670066910&post_id=100077670066910_pfbid02GDy9J1YAvaXcvwt8WbhKciti5sLKGcyHfvz1yRr82nbdoQJRqTBqBHeRxTFZ77sNl&mibextid=CDWPTG

June 1966 Playmate Kelly Burke has a date of death on her wikipedia. Source claims to be her daughter https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelly_Burke

László Hódy (Wiki) later known as Les Hody, Hungarian basketball player, died on 26 May 2023. He first represented Hungary at the 1952 Olympics. After the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, he sought refuge and emigrated to Australia. There he changed his name to Les Hody and was able to acquire Australian citizenship. He then played for Australia in 1964 Olympics. In doing so, he became the first Olympian to compete for 2 countries. Fun fact, he was the youngest player for the 1952 Hungary team while he was the oldest for the 1964 Australian team.

February 1960 Playmate Susie Scott actually died way back on 16 June 2009.

Unfortunately, she married a Simmons

Stacy Arthur, January 1991 Playmate, died off radar on 5 April 2019. It was only publicly known when the the second episode of the first season of The Playboy Murders - All That Glitters that aired Jan 30, 2023. At the end of that episode it was announced that Stacy Arthur had died in 2019 after a brief illness. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacy_Arthur

Not exactly sure if Canada Soccer is saying Jack Steele has dementia.

Yes it's him.

That will be the case for most of the Playboy models in the 50s and 60s. Doesn't help that a lot of them actually used a pseudonym during their modeling days then becoming non-existent after retiring. I suspect at least one-third of the 50s model I marked in yellow are dead but we have no idea what their real name was. Playboy at least has a good tracking record for their models from 70s onwards. A few exceptions will be those who decided to live outside USA like Danielle de Vabre.

I thought the players are listed for 60 years old above. I think I remember there was a player who was already diagnosed with early onset dementia in his 40s. I also found one player who does not have a wiki but has a transfermarket profile and is a former U19 Dutch player. He is only 58 years old. I can't find the article or the player's name now.

Too young to be listed for @Octopus of Odstock: Bruce Murray (Wiki) member of the 1990 USA World Cup squad, has mild dementia as of age 57.

Someone in Startiger got a letter from Morville Chote's son that he died earlier this year at the age of 98.

Bittersweet moment for Olga Carmona as she was the goalscorer for Spain's Women's World Cup finals. Her father died on the same day they won. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid032y7NboaeJnn39iZJcefbKWTiNA8CVFaeGxcQVEyyTxexEYsWgYZvmUJPG3YmoThal&id=100044187438640&post_id=100044187438640_pfbid032y7NboaeJnn39iZJcefbKWTiNA8CVFaeGxcQVEyyTxexEYsWgYZvmUJPG3YmoThal&mibextid=aE13LE
