Woops that happens when I just skim the teams

 

Will look for a new 1922 lady momentarily

Gaositwe Kogakwa Tibe „G.K.T.“ Chiepe was my first thought, but her birth year is unsure.


What about Mildred Goodman?


Sorry, just looking around.

Finally a hit!Ok obit rules relaxed to include New York Times CNN NBC Fox news Daily Mail Daily Mirror The Sun the Telegraph and the Guardian.

 

Beside the BBC these are also sources for a qualifying obit as said by Master Sean.

Deadpooling without optimism is like eatingw ithout appetite.:angel:

A person without an obit is either obscure or alive, let's see, what we are next year.:old:

Philip Latham is neither obscure nor alive.

Besides: 

 

Some of the last scores were an Albanian First Lady, a Barbadian cricketer, a French actor and - if this was not optimistic - a German priest, whose brother had been pope Bishop of Munich.
