Cat O'Falk 3,290 Posted October 23, 2015 Bound to be someone with him in the DDP... Ted Ingram at 95. Was in the news a fair bit when he retired from his paper round just as 2014 lists were being finalised. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-34601980 Doesn't look like it.

Bibliogryphon 9,579 Posted October 29, 2015 Lisa Jardine is history http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/oct/25/renowned-historian-lisa-jardine-dies-aged-71 Bit cross about this one as I remember hearing her on DID where she spoke about her cancer and I made a mental note to follow it up but in the end she probably went too quickly.

DISALLOWED lol SC To her credit (or mine?), she was already fundraising before she got sick, for the Alzheimer's society. Maybe a first brush with breast cancer made her then fundraise for that? I don't know, though she died of a different cancer. According to http://www.theguardian.com/society/2000/nov/13/publicsectorcareers.voluntarysectorshe was a fundraiser for 20 years already. Ah well, let's see if the Guardian obit appears within a couple of days. I thought I might have a new Denise Marshall here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either that or this needs to be posted in Ironic Deaths if I'm to believe she was unaware of her condition. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted November 6, 2015 I had Liz Monks as a possible for 2016 but I thought she was just a few too many steps divorced from the top of her organisation to get the Guardian public sector obit. Let's see how it goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least he seemed to have stayed busy up to the end, has some projects in the works so maybe he's only partly dead and not most sincerely dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
