MexicanDragon Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 Thanks, guys. I feel for his wife and kid. My dad was about Sam's age when he died, and I watched my mom go through losing a "soulmate" and I went through what it was like losing a father way too young. Still really bummed about this. **BRENT**
Voltron Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 RIP Morley Safer, last of the great early 60 Minutes correspondents.
skullguise Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 Indeed, Al, agreed with your assessment. RIP Morley.
ironbut Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 RIP Sam. It seems like all the Vietnam era newscasters are about gone. Those guys were all about trust and not entertainment. RIP Morley!
guzziguy Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 RIP Morley! I agree that the original 60 Minutes reporters were really about the news and trust. However, 60 Minutes is probably the program that woke network management up to the fact that the news could be profit centers.
10-ekips Posted May 21, 2016 Report Posted May 21, 2016 Alan Young, who played straight man to a talking horse in the 1960s sitcom “Mister Ed,” has died. http://pagesix.com/2016/05/20/mr-ed-star-alan-young-dies-at-96/?_ga=1.188144616.1314105890.1459112707
HemiSam Posted May 21, 2016 Report Posted May 21, 2016 Grew up with this gent on the tube. RIP, Alan... HS
Dusty Chalk Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 RIP Cato http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-36370997?SThisFB
skullguise Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 RIP Mr. Kwouk. One of my favorite (non-PC) lines ever from a movie: "...where are you, my little yellow friend....?" And then he pops out of the fridge to attack.....
Craig Sawyers Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 RIP Burt Kwouk. The Pink Panther movies were a must watch back in the day. At least he was a full thirty years older that Sellers (who died aged 55)
guzziguy Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 RIP Burt Kwouk. I loved most of the Pink Panther movies and Cato was a big reason for that.
HemiSam Posted May 25, 2016 Report Posted May 25, 2016 RIP Mr. Kwouk. Could not get enough of those movies in my youth... HS

ironbut Posted May 25, 2016 Report Posted May 25, 2016 RIP Cato! That was a comedy routine I just couldn't get enough of!
Dusty Chalk Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 RIP Makiko Futaki, animator behind Spirited Away, Akira, Howl's Moving Castle, When Marnie Was There, Only Yesterday, Whisper of the Heart, Porco Rosso, Kiki's Delivery Service, My Neighbour Totoro, and Princess Mononoke. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0299400/
Voltron Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 RIP Makiko-san. I'm surprised that nobody has posted about Maya Angelou's passing. "In her full life, she wrote staggeringly beautiful poetry. She also wrote a cookbook and was nominated for a Tony. She delivered a poem at a presidential inauguration. In 2010, President Barack Obama named her a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country's highest civilian honor. She was friends with Malcolm X and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and inspired young adults and world celebrities. She sang calypso. She lived through horrors." Cheers to a very full life indeed. RIP Ms. Angelou. 1
skullguise Posted May 31, 2016 Report Posted May 31, 2016 So true Al. RIP to an incredible woman, and a superb example of humanity!
