The Dead Of 2011

Recommended Posts

I hate to bring this up again but some doubt was cast on whetehr Ruby Muhammad had really died or not.Well her own website now confirms it .so hopefully that one can now be finally laid to rest!

 

There was no doubt that she had died, it all depends if an obit had been submitted or not

This one nearly slipped by unnoticed from 3 days ago:

 

Johnny Pearson

 

The composer, pianist and arranger and conductor of the "Top of the Pops" Orchestra has died aged 85. Also played a major role in launching Cilla Black's career :banghead: by arranging the music for her first 2 no.1 hits "Anyone Who Had a Heart" and "You're My World".

Are there any press reports or obits to support this claim? I notice his wikipedia entry, which had been altered to give the date of his alleged death, has been changed back again.

George Walker

 

The former boxer responsible for the Brent Cross Shopping Centre, Britain's first stand-alone shopping centre, and founder of the Brent Walker empire has died aged 82.

 

He did pretty well for a man once sent to prison for stealing nylon stockings - his daughter married a cousin of Prince Philip and "he sponsored the opera, launched the Brent Walker sailing race from Brighton to Cadiz in Spain, and renamed the September Ascot races the Brent Walker Festival" and entertained guests on his boat during the Cannes Film Festival.

 

Not surprising to see him lauded by the Daily Mail then!

Right...so because she was a woman, and because she ran for vice president, that automatically means she is responsible for Palin's political opportunities?
