Probably wanted to hurry up and die before Trump takes office.

Alan Thicke dead at age 69. Was just on the LeBatard show last week and was fucking hilarious.

Had a heart attack playing hockey.

Sorry for your loss, torontoduke.

Damn.

 

[torontoduke]

Craig Sager was one of my all-time favorite media personalities, such a unique presence.

Sad day.

 

[CK86]

Man what a shitty year, lost so many greats.

 

[deepdarkblue]

Dr. Henry Heimlich couldn't make it to 2017. Choker.

Zsa Zsa Gabor couldn't hold on another week. Dies at 99.

2016 not going out without a bang.........or a wham.

 

[torontoduke]

Wow, that is pretty shocking, 53 is pretty young.

I am not a fan of wham, but GM had a great voice and IMO had some pretty timeless pop hits as a solo artist.

RIP

I believe he had diabetes for a long time. Likely connected to that.

Carrie Fisher has died.

Carrie Fisher has died.

Godamnit.

A Prince, a Princess, and the Greatest. 3 figures I looked up to a whole lot during my formative years, all claimed this year. Urgh.

Richard Adams, author of Watership Down. This and Leonard Cohen were the two most relevant deaths to me this year, even if neither was unexpected. Watership Down sold 50 million copies worldwide.

 

[ZackM]

Legit sad about Carrie Fisher.

 

[Thain]

Legit sad about Carrie Fisher.

I posted the same thing on Facebook. It's rare that I get genuinely sad about the passing of someone famous but I feel like she was part of my growing up.

 

[dkst0426]

At least slightly in poor taste (not unlike their overpriced crap):
