Voltron Posted March 2, 2017 Report Posted March 2, 2017 Another great is gone.

EdipisReks1 Posted March 2, 2017 Report Posted March 2, 2017 I actually had no idea that he had had polio, and had a partially disabled right hand. I feel stupid for not having known that, but it certainly says something about his abilities. He'll be missed. Quote
HemiSam Posted March 3, 2017 Report Posted March 3, 2017 RIP, Mssr. Paxton. I vividly recall seeing him onscreen the first time in Weird Science....yep. Can't forget the role, the movie or the music by Danny Elfman in Oingo Boingo. RIP, Mr. Parlan. Great hands... HS Quote
Hopstretch Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 John Surtees, the only man to win both the Formula One and Motorcycle world championships. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/39235608 1 Quote
HemiSam Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 Godspeed, Mr. Surtees. You went very fast and lived long....no small feat. HS 1 Quote
ironbut Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 RIP John Surtees! They don't make em like that anymore! Quote
Craig Sawyers Posted March 11, 2017 Report Posted March 11, 2017 Given the Formula One race carnage back in the day with absolutely no driver safety, the fact that John Surtees lived to a ripe old age is astonishing. And bikes too! RIP John Surtees. 1 Quote
swt61 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Posted March 11, 2017 I missed this one, as he died on the 8th. R.I.P. Lou Duva! Legendary boxing trainer/promoter. I had no idea he was still alive. 94 years of age. Quote
HemiSam Posted March 11, 2017 Report Posted March 11, 2017 RIP, Mr. Duva. I didn't know he was alive either. That's one heck of a run for a man, especially in that line of business. HS Quote
swt61 Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 Not sure how I missed this one either, but R.I.P. Fred Weintraub. His accomplishments too many to mention, but Woodstock and Bruce Lee movies are just a few. Quote
skullguise Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 Wow, didn't see that either....RIP! I had read a good bit about his club The Bitter End, help launch quite a few careers..... 1 Quote

skullguise Posted March 14, 2017 Report Posted March 14, 2017 RIP Joni.....too young..... And RIP to an unknown to most, but a big part of my college and post-college years: John Lever, drummer for the band Chameleons UK and a bunch of others. One of the hardest hitters I've known. Got to meet him a couple years ago, great gent who just loved music. 1 Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted March 14, 2017 Report Posted March 14, 2017 RIP John Lever -- I love Chameleons (UK). Quote

TMoney Posted March 18, 2017 Report Posted March 18, 2017 90 years is a good run. RIP to one of the great guitar gods of all time. 1 Quote
