msc 17,763 Posted June 23, 2020 3 minutes ago, Perhaps said: Australian actor/producer Michael Falzon dead from cancer aged 48. RIP to him. No age at all, and I had thought the lack of takers had suggested he was doing better. That said, this Mail obit means that, after 9 years of trying, I finally have my first ever unique hit for Pan Breed! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was 73. https://wtov9.com/news/local/historic-powerball-winner-jack-whittaker-has-died-06-29-2020 There was a TIL on Reddit a few years ago about his plight. In short, a lot of tragedy came from the win. The manner in which the townsfolk treated him was appalling, but he didn't make it easier for himself either. Best case scenario would've been the win being kept secret. Only 6 states allow Powerball winners to remain anonymous, though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
