I honestly don't know what to say about this one. Shot at his own home, at 60, after a whole life of titles and politics and businesses. I only knew the name from the 1992 European taekwondo win, read about it years later while going down some Balkan sports history rabbit hole. Strange, sad way for that story to end.
For Paul Fredrick Dowd · 22d ago
Didn't know him, only read the obituary my aunt in Marshfield sent around. Thirty plus years on the trading floor and what people actually remember is him showing up for seniors through Home Helpers after he retired. That part's worth something.

Never followed him closely but you can't argue with 5,222 wins. That Curlin run in the Classic was something else to watch, even for someone who only checks in on Derby day.
For William "Wink" Brown · 21 Sept 2026
My mom called me in Lisbon this morning just to tell me Wink Brown died. She lives two roads over from Arrington and said he was the one who got that fire department standing back in '87. Never met the man, but growing up you just knew that name if you were from that part of Williamson County.

Eugenia Apostol took the women's pages and made them matter. Made them dangerous. Made them honest. That takes nerve. She had plenty of it.
For Abdul Jalil Mastan · 12 Sept 2026
The prohibition years were fascinating from a policy angle. Love him or hate the ban, he stood by it. That's rare in politics anymore.
For Christof Straub · 11 Sept 2026
What a loss. Christof shaped Austrian pop for a generation and then kept going, kept building, kept helping younger artists find their voice. That takes real character.

My dad played your albums in our kitchen in the nineties. I didn't know who you were then, just the voice in the background while he made Sunday lunch. Years later I realized those songs had stuck with me all along. Rest well, Dimitris.
For David Johansen · 28 Mar 2026
My dad played New York Dolls records when I was a kid and I never understood them until I was older. By then David was on the radio telling stories about Duke Ellington and Bo Diddley like he'd known them personally. He probably made everyone feel like that.
