For Joseph B. Gunnison · 1d ago

Never knew him, just read this piece over breakfast, but 36 years in special education without ever being famous for it is its own kind of record.

For Larry Arnold Simmons · 2d ago

My wife read this out to me over breakfast, the bit about surveying bridges for twenty six years and still building houses after. Sixty two years married is its own achievement. Never met the man, never been to Spokane, but that sort of steady life deserves a line somewhere.

For Norma Jean Curtis · 17d ago

78. Quietly done, a life of teaching and family.

For Slavko Pregl · 21d ago

Never read him in Slovene, only knew of him through the book world pages, but Slovene PEN's line stays with me: a writer with "a sharp, critical pen, often seasoned with humour." That's the whole obituary really.

For Andrea Warner · 24d ago

47. Hell of a thing.

For Ian King · 25d ago

56. The F.U.'s records still on a shelf somewhere in this house.

For Janine Boissard · 29d ago

Fifty plus books. Never won the big prizes, never needed to.

For Tony Currie · 29d ago

Just switched over for the football results and caught this instead. Currie's voice was on BBC Scotland every night for years, you didn't notice it till it stopped. 75. Didn't expect that one.

For Danny Setiawan · 19 Sept 2026

Followed West Java politics from an armchair in Manchester since the World Service report on his 2003 election. Didn't expect to read about his death at 81 over coffee this morning.

For Andy Williams · 17 Sept 2026

He once said wrestling and music were "the same peaks and valleys, just different lighting." Left it at that.

For Celestí Alomar · 5 Sept 2026

A geographer who understood that tourism wasn't destiny, just a question. Not many politicians asked who the islands were actually for.

For Francesc Garrido · 4 Sept 2026

Smoking Room. Enough said. One of the best ensemble casts ever assembled, and he was the quiet centre of it all. Barcelona loses a craftsman.

same, I can't stop thinking about it

To Abena Eze’s tribute on James Handy’s page · 4d ago

That scene scared me as a kid honestly

To Roger Morris’s tribute on Chris Wilson Jr.’s page · 21d ago

Same, that number stopped me cold.

To Nicolas Roux’s tribute on Albert S. Axelrad’s page · 24 Sept 2026

He did, ask anyone who went through Brandeis Hillel.

To Hana Habib’s tribute on Chad Gilbert’s page · 20 Sept 2026

same, I was doing the washing up when it came on
