For Gastón Acurio Velarde · 1d ago

I spent a semester studying Peru's infrastructure in 1989 and his name kept coming up. A man who actually built things, not just talked about them. Godspeed, Don Gastón.

For Mehdi Zana · 2d ago

My father used to say Mehdi Zana proved you could speak your own language and still love your city. He meant it as hope for all of us, no matter where we come from. We lost a gentle kind of courage today.

For Richard E. Stearns · 9d ago

I read about his work in complexity theory while studying policy in grad school and it opened my eyes to how mathematics shapes what we can and cannot solve. A true pioneer who made rigor beautiful.

For Mark Rydell · 11d ago

I was watching On Golden Pond with my mother last month and we both cried. She said, 'That's Mark Rydell. He knew how to let actors be brave.' He really did. A life well lived.

For Bill Rasmussen · 19d ago

My dad watched ESPN from day one. He'd say Bill Rasmussen gave us something nobody thought possible, and wasn't that just like America at its best.

For Catherine O'Hara · 25 Mar 2026

From Toronto sketch stages to the world. A Canadian treasure who never forgot where she came from. We're grateful for every year she gave us.

For Connie Francis · 8 Sept 2025

She stood up for what was right and wasn't afraid to say so. That takes courage. The entertainment world needs more of that spirit.

For Tom Petty · 10 Aug 2025

My mother saw him live in 1989 and never stopped talking about it. She played Refugee on repeat when he passed. He meant something real to her, to all of us.

For Kirk Douglas · 9 Aug 2025

My father taught me to stand up for people who couldn't stand up for themselves, and Kirk Douglas did exactly that when it mattered most. Insisting Dalton Trumbo get his name on Spartacus wasn't just about one man, it was about all of us. He'll be remembered for that courage.

For Steve Irwin · 9 Aug 2025

My son wanted to be just like Steve Irwin. He wore the khaki outfit everywhere for a year. Such a wonderful influence on young people who care about the planet.

For Elizabeth Taylor · 7 Aug 2025

She converted to Judaism and never looked back, spoke out for AIDS patients when the government wouldn't, married eight times and owned every single one of those chapters. A woman who refused to be small or quiet. The world is dimmer now.

For Sir Christopher Lee · 4 Aug 2025

My mother loved everything he did. She dragged us to see The Wicker Man at the cinema when she was pregnant with my sister, and she never got over it. RIP to the man who terrified her in the best way.
