Clive Dunn, Ariel Sharon, General Jaruzelski, Pope John Paul II, Mickey Rooney, Ronnie Biggs, Fidel Castro, and Billy Graham. To keep things on topic, a birthday celebration was held for Chief Raoni Metuktire at an Indigenous summit last week, where he discussed his own mortality. Raoni also named his successor: a nephew who will predecease him.

I have no idea why you brought this thread back, but it's worth updating:
