Written in French and mostly behind a paywall, but confirmation of the death of Lorand Gaspar nonetheless.

Thanks. Updated. Still waiting on Dorothy Morrison and Jeanne Mockford, both of which may never come. I'm having doubts that Jeremiah Stamler is dead. Would have expected to have seen something by now.

Here's a new one: Academic Frank L. Lambert died 28th December. Seen a Twitter mention but no obit still...

Stamler is definitely alive and turned 100 today! :birthday:

 

Looks awful.

James Arthur Ewing, former Governor of American Samoa, dead at 103.

Source for Kohak's death.

The guy that added Ewing's death on Wiki is a usual troll, so I guess it's utter bullshit.

So left are:

 

1)Patrick Jordan: probably way too late for an obituary. Gonna be long time before it is confirmed.

2)Nikolay Krasilnikov: nothing can be found, probably a hoax (but who the hell would hoax about him?)

3)Dick Koecher: some Legacy/Dignity Memorial is the only hope.
