Of my four hits, the only one I hadn't known before was the most Deathlisty one, Diana Athill. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,582 Posted May 13, 2019 Up to three on mine with the death of Doris (Number 1 on my list for no particular reasons - they are others on my list I expected to go before her simply for being older or with known serious illnesses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana 859 Posted May 14, 2019 For the first time this year, I have taken the lead against the main list with the death of Unita Blackwell. Thought she would be a given for some obits. Wouldn't have had her on the list otherwise, but I'll take it regardless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi! I usually only carry-over 25 names from the previous year. The Deathlisters for the main list on the front page only carry-over 25 names from the previous year. Of course you can send in an entirely new list with no repeat names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
