RIP someone or another

[Voltron]

RIP Harold. 

@skullguise Todd, I think your finger slipped because I don't think you meant to laugh at Dusty's post. 

[Dusty Chalk]

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!

RIP Charlie Pride.

He became a huge Country Music star at a time when a Black Country singer was unheard of. He did it with a positive attitude and a bucket load of class. They wouldn't even put his picture on his first two albums.

Covid-19 sucks ass!

RIP John le Carré.

Wrote some amazing spy novels. One of the best in the genre.

[Craig Sawyers]

RIP David Cornwell (John le Carré). Superb novelist over the decades. Aged 89, so not too bad an innings.

[Craig Sawyers]

RIP Barbara Windsor. Probably not that well known in the US, but in the UK famous for being in all the Carry On movies, and long time member of the cast of a popular soap East Enders.

Aged 83 from Alzheimers. She continued acting for three years after diagnosis.

Quite a character; in her 20's she had affairs with the East End gangsters the Krays.

I just found out a good friend's dad died of covid tonight. Sad and angry. RIP Dr. Gerald Katzin.

[Craig Sawyers]

Oh damn - Tim de Paravicini. I didn't see that coming. RIP a guy who designed a landmark series of products.

[ironbut]

RIP TdP!

As a reel to reel fanatic, his mods to gear like the ATR102 are legend and his 825Q mastering equalizer is considered by the mastering engineers I know to be their fav.

RIP K.T. Osline.

She was a force in country music in the 80's, and the first woman to win song of the year with her hit '80's Ladies'.

She was battling Parkinson's when she contracted Covid 19.

^I always thought she was hot. In a scary, "she'd break you in half" sort of way. *shrug

RIP Kevin Greene. Great on and off the field. I'm glad I got to see him play with the 49ers back in the day.

Yep, I actually met him once back during his Steeler days.  Seemed like a legit cool guy.
