Jeez, my heart did a substantial jump on seeing this thread bumped. Ray is still writing best I know, an inspiration to all writers!

I have noticed that too many nonagenarians on the list have lingered too long.I am therefore expecting a sudden flood of ninety something deaths at any time!

Hit number 5 then. Wasn't sure if he was on the list at first - could have sworn he was but then I searched for his name and couldn't find him (I guess because Ray is less than 4 letters and doesn't get picked up)

Death is a Lonely Business

A Graveyard for Lunatics

 

Surely a worthy obit titlle can be made from those. RIP anyway, I used Farenheit 451 as the subject of my Junior AP Literature exam.

Not even halfway through the year and allready 5 hits.is it possible we could get into double figures for the first time in 3 years? We dare to hope!

Nice timing: dying while a Transit of Venus is happening. I don't think he wrote about such astronomical phenomena, but he might have.

 

Edit to add: one of his short stories has as a tiltle: "Bang! You're Dead!". Works for me as an obit title.

 

Five hits means that we're right on par for a double figure final score in 2012.

 

regards,

Hein

I noticed that on the main page it has Ray Bradbury as June 6th. I'm kind of a rookie here, but Ray died on the 5th. Not sure if you list them by their date of death or the day it was reported.

I knew he was getting up there in years I just hadn't realized how up there he was.

Well he died in California at night on the 5th so maybe if it was posted by someone in a British Time Zone it was already the 6th.
