The Dead Of 2013

Recommended Posts

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.

So, Glenn's dead, then?

 

Genn Miller was killed in a plane crash in 1944. CNN has the story http://www.cnn.com/2...-musician-obit/

No he wasnt.

He died of a heart attack while having the "Full English breakfast" in a French brothel in 1944.

So there.

... and then of course there was the classic "The Emudin Line" (sadly never managed to find any clips on YouTube) which was filmed near where I grew up and featured Rod Hull who with his blond mop and sideburns bore some resemblance to Gilmore in his Onedin guise.

 

R.I.P. Peter Gilmore.

No mention of 'Teardrops' bigamist/vocalist Cecil Womacks death on here ?

Apparently he died last week but the Nigerias had to clear his bank account first.

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.

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. :banghead:

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?
