Very dull month and year. It feels like centenarians have stopped dying at all.

John Dunmore (wiki), New Zealand academic and historian, supposedly died yesterday. Would have turned 100 in Aug.

Been on my long list for 15 years and yet surprisingly never mentioned once on DL despite his prominence in academia.

EDIT: I see British geographer/academic Alice Coleman (wiki) has also supposedly died (today, a month shy of her centenary).

TBF, both or neither of them could get a QO.

Steve Marsh (wiki), Aussie rules player for South Fremantle and East Fremantle, supposedly dead at 98.

I believe he was the oldest living member of the Australian Football Hall of Fame.

Riad Yunes who is/was a Dominican sports shooter - dead according to wikipedia (though it says DOD unknown)

 

No DOD on Google when search name (I was updating a list I have for those in their 90's) and can't find anything to back this up.

Josette Baisse (wiki), French Olympic cross-country skier, supposedly died today aged 98.

Despite being 98, Baisse was "only" France's 5th oldest living Olympian.

That's an obit for Simpson Kalisher, not Roy Harrisville (think you quoted the wrong post).

So nice of them to read my tip-off email and write an obit without acknowledging and responding.

Cucking funts.
