RIP 2022

R.I.P. Scott Hall. One of the most stand-up guys ever in old school wrestling.

William Hurt (of many movies fame, but more recently Thaddeus Ross in the Marvel films) passed away earlier this week.

Taylor Hawkins (drummer for Foo Fighters) sadly just passed away. It was very sudden since he was in Australia just a couple of weeks ago.

[Fungal Infection]

As a diehard Foo Fighters fan, this is the worst possible news this year (so far).

Vale Gilbert Gottfried. Most famous as the voice of the parrot in Disney's Aladdin, but absolutely hilarious on the various Celebrity reality TV shows.

Celebrity Apprentice, slightly NSFW - language.

I didn't recognise the name, but immediately recognised the face.

I remember him most from Beverly Hills Cop 2 (with Eddie Murphy), as the accountant that they convince has outstanding parking tickets, and he goes nuts.

I just found out this morning that Estelle Harris died last week of natural causes - she was best known as George's mother in Seinfeld. For Toy Story fans, she was the voice of Mrs Potato Head.
She was 93.

Liz Sheridan who played Jerry’s mother on Seinfeld has also passed away. Although for us kids of the 80s she’ll always be Mrs Ochmonek from ALF first in our memories.

Another Australian cricketer dying young suddenly - Andrew Symonds died in a single vehicle car crash, at just 46.

Actor Ray Liotta died in his sleep at (just) 67... which is pretty young these days to just die in your sleep if you aren't known to have any underlying conditions.
