drol 12,125 Posted January 1, 2017 Archbishop Hilarion Capucci becomes the first notable death of 2017 aged 94. http://www.wattan.tv/news/194746.html Sorry, SC, this is the only available link for now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GossipGabe 333 Posted January 1, 2017 Archbishop Hilarion Capucci becomes the first notable death of 2017 aged 94. http://www.wattan.tv/news/194746.html Sorry, SC, this is the only available link for now. LOL, I usually understand a little bit of most Germanic and Romance languages, but an article in Arabic script was a bit too much, even for me. Anyways, an obscure Palestinian Archbishop is probably less notable than RadGuy's Burundian minister. Both are listed by Wikipedia, but Niyonkoru was also mentioned on the BBC: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-38482608 (Yeah, likely just because of his violent death, but still.)

drol 12,125 Posted January 1, 2017 He was a cotroversial man, too. He always hated Israel and supported Palestinese terrorists (was arrested for weapon smuggling in 1974 and for being part of Gaza Flotilla in 2010), but he supported Assad in the Syrian Civil War against islamist rebels.

Lewd_Squirrel 331 Posted January 2, 2017 I just found out that someone that was on my list last year, died last year, & I never knew it. :/ lol I even kept them on, for this year, until I checked them out, to see if they were still around, lol. Apparently, back on September 21st, singer John D Loudermilk died, of a heart attack. So, that makes my total, for last year, 13 deaths, not 12. Scratch that, make that two people on my list, from last year, died, without me know. Frank Buckley also died, & way back on February 1st, lol. 14 in total, for me, a record.
