For Dick Cheney · 19d ago

My mom called me at 6am my time to tell me, she still can't believe he made it to 84 after everything with his heart. Growing up in Oklahoma we watched the Gulf War coverage with him on the screen every night, my dad called him the most serious man in Washington. Strange to hear that kind of news from so far away.

For Marilyn Mitro Mayor · 19 Sept 2026

My mom called me about this one, she does that with the Houston Chronicle obituaries sometimes. 87 years old and still had a home out in the Texas Hill Country with her husband. Something about that made me tear up on a random Tuesday, thousands of miles from home.

For Wendell Berry · 31 Aug 2026

I have read Wendell's books more times than I can count. Each time they gave me something new.

For Bonnie Tyler · 9 Jul 2026

One of a kind

Rest well, Bonnie. The work is done, and it was good.

For Tay Keith · 30 Jun 2026

I met Tay once, very briefly, and they were kind to a nervous stranger. That's what I'll remember.

For Marilyn Monroe · 22 Jan 2026

Rest in peace

Thank you for a lifetime of it, Marilyn. Rest in peace.

For Jim Henson · 27 Nov 2025

Thank you for a lifetime of it, Jim. Rest in peace.

For Winston Churchill · 20 Nov 2025

Rest in peace

My grandmother loved Winston. When she died we played their work at the funeral. Now they're both gone. Strange how connected it all is.

For Fred Rogers · 23 Jun 2025

Some people leave a mark on the world that doesn't fade. Fred was one of them.

For Coco Chanel · 3 Jun 2025

One of a kind

I keep coming back to this page. It helps to know so many others feel the same.

For Andy Warhol · 6 May 2025

Gratitude

Andy Warhol will be remembered long after the rest of us are forgotten. That's what greatness looks like.

For Louis Armstrong · 9 Apr 2025

Lighting a candle from India. Louis meant a great deal to a lot of us here.
