76 is no age at all these days. Never met the man, just read his pieces on Sulphur Dell over the years and always learned something. Hoping his family has people around them right now.

For Kenneth Shuler · 11d ago

My mother called me about this, actually. She trained at one of his schools in Columbia back in the 80s, said it set her up for life. Strange thing to hear about on a phone call from Wisconsin while I'm sitting in another country.

2,954 games. that's a career.

For Rabbi Israel (Eliezer HaLevi) Rubin · 20d ago

My cousin went to UAlbany in the 80s and used to bring home the Shabbos House matchbooks with candle lighting times printed on them, said the guy who ran it had thought of everything. 78 years old. Never met him, just heard the stories secondhand for forty years.

For Peter James Raridon · 25d ago

Not one for these NFL family stories usually, skip past them most days. But sharing this publicly, naming the condition, actually telling people what anencephaly is, that took some guts. My niece lost a baby the same way in the nineties and nobody said the word out loud back then.

For Felicity Green · 16 Sept 2026

Only came across her a couple of years back, some documentary clip about Fleet Street in the sixties. 100 years old. The line about spending money on clothes rather than arms stuck with me, unusual thing for a fashion editor to say.

For Marly Kinney · 16 Sept 2026

Well, that's a punch in the gut. Didn't expect this week to go this way.

For Jing Yidan · 13 Sept 2026

Seventy-one is too young. She had years of essays left to write.

For Iván Carvajal · 7 Sept 2026

A philosopher-poet who refused to let sentiment masquerade as truth. Ecuador lost someone who understood that ideas and beauty aren't separate things.

For Christy Knowings · 4 Sept 2026

Cardiac arrest at 46. Another reminder that talent and work ethic don't buy you much time in this world. Her characters lived longer than she did.

For Masao Yora · 30 Aug 2026

He once said media with real purpose shouldn't make politics look shabby. In 2026 that feels like something said from another planet.

For Didier Decoin · 10 Aug 2026

Eighty-one years of novels, scripts, and fighting for writers' rights and then against the death penalty besides. A man who actually believed in exigence and showed up for it. That's rarer than the Goncourt prize.

For Brenda Fricker · 18 Jul 2026

The Oscar curse is real but she held the door open anyway. Force of nature.

For Sir Roger Moore · 6 Aug 2025

Seven Bond films and not a bad one in the bunch. Also the guy who actually showed up for the kids when cameras weren't rolling. Rare animal in that business.

To Katie Graham’s tribute on Russell Stone’s page · 2d ago

Auckland business history of all things, and he made it readable, that takes real skill

To Rocco Ferrara’s tribute on Carolyn Monroe Hall’s page · 4d ago

That's a good way to be remembered.

To Grace Cook’s tribute on Jonathan Meléndez’s page · 9 Sept 2026

Sending you both so much love. His music touched so many hearts like your daughter's.
