Dutch singer Albert West, dead at 65. http://www.mediacourant.nl/2015/06/zanger-albert-west-65-overleden/ In the 70s he had some minor hits in the Netherlands and in Germany but he was very popular in Austria where he had 3 No.1 hits: 1973 Ginny come lately for 12 weeks 1974 Tell Laura I love her for 4 weeks 1974 Sheila for 4 weeks

Thank you, SC, but it wasn't that difficult. She lived in a rest home for the last couple of years. And as gcreptile said: The sitcom she was playing in is still very popular in Germany. She even got an obit in the main news yesterday.

Thank you, gcreptile. Und ruhe in Frieden, Frau Wiedemann. No UK obit for her I suppose. But for me: A hit is a hit!

Watch out for Jerry Stiller. The loss of Anne Meara, his wife for 61 years, will break his little heart.

It has to be a girl... a very old girl... Zsa Zsa!

Who are the THREES? SC Percy Sledge, Ben E. King and BB King, even if not every one was on the DL.

This time DEATH doesn't come in 3s but in 4s so I say Chuck Berry.

Really sad news.

Not THAT impressive but better than nothing:

First of June

Oh. Thanks for the correction. obit and obituaries, check.

Thank you very much, YoungWillz! But I can't believe that this ist "the only official" UK orbit. Why are there no orbituaries on other news sites?

Judith Malina, founder of the Living Theatre, died at the age of 88. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/11/theater/judith-malina-founder-of-the-living-theater-dies-at-88.html Most likely she is better known as Grandma Addams: Hoping for a proper UK orbit to get me some fine unique points...

Kayahan, who represented Turkey in 1990, died of cancer at age 66. http://esctoday.com/99779/turkey-1990-representative-kayahan-passed-away/

Oh, my third hit, though I picked him as the first to go in my team: Manoel de Oliveira

Right! But I picked him as my joker last year... Grrrrr...

So sad about Terry Pratchetts death but he got me some fine points here...

Maybe an "unexpected" one... Maureen O'Hara.
