Lusitania was the ancient name of Portugal, maybe this woman was Portuguese or had Portuguese origins ?

 

I think you are right, her father's side of the family are of Goa Portuguese origin. The name makes a lot more sense now, thank you.

 

Back on topic, a cricketer named Brian Brain died recently.

A former Bulgarian footballer named Ferario Spasov died in a traffic collision.

I guess his first name didn’t bring him luck…

Jordan Pop-Jordanov or Pop-Jordanow (researchgate, wikidata) Macedonian nuclear physicist, WWII partisan, member of the Yugoslav Communist Party Central Committee, professional tennis player, expert on renewable energy and full member of the Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts has popped his clogs at 98.

 

Interesting that researchgate profile that goes from nuclear physics to sustainable energy, to ADHD, postpartum depression, climate change and stress.
