maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted February 6, 2013 Hans Massaquoi, party-pooping by carking on his birthday. But, given that he was a black schoolboy in Nazi Germany, he did well to spend a few hours as an 87 year old. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/9848505/Hans-Massaquoi.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

R.I.P. Peter Gilmore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VSBfromH 74 Posted February 9, 2013 R.I.P. much-travelled conductor James DePriest. He was one of the first African-American conductors on the world stage, and was appointed assistant conductor of the New York Philharmonic by Leonard Bernstein in 1965. Having contracted poliomyelitis in 1962, he notably conducted much of the time from a seated position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,610 Posted February 10, 2013 Wasn't really sure where to post this one... Japanese-born American martial arts great and highest-ranked female judo practitioner in history, Keiko Fukuda is dead on Wikipedia and by hearsay on Twitter. Nothing official as of yet. She was due to turn 100 in 2 months and I almost put her on my DDP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garn2 34 Posted February 10, 2013 I will explode if Zhuang Zedong dies... Now that he's off my team and a unique for DDT. I dropped him because I read that his treatment was going very well. Please, there really is no need to combust on my account. Try to remain calm at all times. I read that ZZ wasn't doing too well last September, so I thought I'd give him a run out in my team. I'm a bit worried about his obit chances though. You were saying? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
