The Fringes Of Fame/family Of The Famous

Recommended Posts

Gonna ask a lame, lame question that will probably involve heavy work for the mods: should this thread be split into "families of the famous" and "people who aren't famous that are having a Brave Battle Against Cancer"?

That's so sad luckily she managed to achieve most of the things she wanted . But dying at 17 of cancer is heart breaking R.I.P Alice.

I'm doing this from my phone, not my PC, so I can't link to it but The Huffington Post has reported that Jo Bryant died last weekend.

Still too late to make HuffPo.uk an acceptable obit source?

As it stands HuffPost was not added to the list as I didn't come to a final decision about it...

They'll likely do some attention seeking type thing at her funeral.

An obit will pop up sooner or later.

Gemma McLuskie's brother guilty of murder. Suicidal guilt feelings possible, but marginal.

 

You'd have to hope her final moments were more convincing that big Barry's gormless tumble down the hillside!

Racist prune Strom Thurmond's black daughter, birthed from a relationship he had with a maid and not publicly known as his daughter till he was dead, is a goner at 87. Strom essentially makes for the race equivalent of those anti-gay politicos/preachers that happen to like it up the bum.

Jungleyes Love, the old-Harrovian hippie/eccentric has died aged 56.

 

Not even on the fringes of fame perhaps, but famous enough for a Daily Telegraph obit, which contains such gems as

 

at primary school, he questioned his orthodox Christian headmistress about why the school was not also worshipping the Devil

 

and

at Harrow, he contacted the Chinese Embassy and persuaded staff there to send 725 complimentary copies of Chairman Mao’s Little Red Book, which were promptly returned by the school authorities

If full of remorse, could make the Bladerunner a candidate...............

What ever happened to Katherine Crowe?

 

She's still giving updates on her website's blog. She backtracked on the whole "no more treatment" thing as she's been trying electrochemotherapy.
