Mai Song

For Linda Jean Willhite · 6d ago

Heard this from my mum on the phone this morning. She did Spanish with Mrs Willhite at Sherrard back in the seventies, still remembers her conjugation drills. 80 years old.

For John William Branigan · 8d ago

mum rang asking if this was the William Morris booking agent, same name. it's not, this one's from Cement City, Michigan, 36, no cause given. the whole funeral notice is two lines long

For Vladimir Gogoladze · 20d ago

First triple back on Olympic floor, 1988. That's it, that's the whole sentence.

For Asher Matathias · 22d ago

Didn't know him, just the Woodmere name in the report. 82, and one more who could say I was there is gone now. That's the part that lands.

For Teodoro Gómez · 25d ago

63. My father died the same way, mid trip, no warning, no explanation ever given. Reading this brought it all back.

For Fred Barber (Fredrick Winston Barber Jr.) · 25d ago

my dad just called me about a pharmacist in Georgia and I had no idea he was the guy from that Dooley first game clip. 83.

For Vissarion Stretovych · 21 Sept 2026

Reading about this a bit late, thirty six years leading one eparchy is not something you see much anymore. I remember years ago going down a rabbit hole on Ukrainian church history for a uni essay that never got finished, kept a tab open about Ovruch and Korosten for ages after, never thought I'd see the name again in a death notice. He was consecrated in 1992, before that place even existed as its own eparchy, then it was created the next year and he just stayed. Seventy two, prolonged illness apparently. Strange how you can feel something for a person you never had any reason to know about. edit: fixed the year, it was 1993 the eparchy was set up not 92.

For Pat Senatore · 17 Sept 2026

91. A Taste of Honey, Ed Sullivan, 1965. Still on YouTube.

For Chiche Gelblung · 9 Sept 2026

Memoria was fearless. You knew where he stood and he'd say it without blinking.

For Alberto Iribarne · 5 Sept 2026

A lawyer who believed institutions could hold. Rare thing to see.

For S. R. Janakiraman · 5 Sept 2026

Blind in one eye from childhood, shaped Carnatic musicology for seventy years. Extraordinary.

For Eberhard Vogel · 2 Sept 2026

Read about him years ago in an old sports history. The choice to stay, to turn down Santos, seemed almost impossible to understand at the time. Now it makes perfect sense.

To Marquis Davis’s tribute on Philippe Caillard’s page · 14d ago

Same with my grandmother's records, Lassus not Victoria but same era.

To April Lambert’s tribute on Kathleen (Kathy) Melka’s page · 24 Sept 2026

To Janet Tan’s tribute on Eric Zahnd’s page · 17 Sept 2026

That's how a lot of us heard too, phone before the news.
