Murray Walker

well, he was trying to "prove" that the Earth is flat. If you really want to have an insight as to how these people think. I would recommend the documentary "Behind The Curve"

Richard O'Sullivan has been there longer

This was my reluctance to include him on any of my lists. Given there have been several recently that have died that I and many I know that have shared the stage with them would regard them to be legends.

Not exactly a "car crash" he was crossing the street at the time and a car hit him

Lana Dale, widow of Dick Dale is currently battling pneumonia.

It's not about age. Just a few years before she appeared on the list, there had been attempts on her life, and she was at risk from an attack by the IRA. Afterall, they assassinated her cousin, Lord Mountbatten back in 79
