Two acclaimed Hollywood veterans celebrate their birthdays today. Robert Duvall turns 88 and Diane Keaton turns 74. Many happy returns to them both.

Pam Grier denies cancer rumors

Perhaps her cervical cancer was not stage 4 when it was first diagnosed in 1988? Either this, or her surgeon managed to cut out all her secondary tumours. I really can't see how someone can survive stage 4 cancer for 32 years.

Grier is definitely one to watch I say. Maybe not very soon, but within the next couple of years...

Similarly (see other threads) I came to post Byrne's obit, and again the search box failed.  Oh well.... gonna be some duplication.  At least I knew to look, newer people won't.

There's nowt wrong with the search function. You must have searched for 'Byrne' instead of 'Byrnes'. I searched for 'Byrne*' and got the three posts plus your post.
