She may have had her demons, but her voice was heavenly. I remember the year she sang the National Anthem at the Super Bowl. Was the best rendition I had ever heard. Rest in Peace, Whitney.

Rest in peace, Peter Breck! - Another great cowboy actor has gone to cowboy heaven... Nick Barkley was a wonderful role for him in Big Valley. At the moment Big Valley is released in Germany on DVD and I always enjoy watching it. I think, I will watch some episodes today and have a tear in the corner of my eye for Peter Breck.

Former baseball player Gary Carter has died at 57 after fighting brain cancer for the last few years. He played for the old Montreal Expos and NY Mets during a stellar career. Won himself a World Series with the Mets back in either 86 or 87, can't remember which year. RIP Gary.

It was 1986 that he won the World Series with the Mets . He was a great player. Rest in Peace, Gary.

I missed a lot here, but I wasn't aware of the Peter Breck's passing. He had a good long life, and I did enjoy him on "The Big Valley." And want to pass my condolence to Whitney Houston as well. Too young to die. I grew up watching Gary Carter in my teens. He was really a great baseball player. I didn't know that he was only 7 years older than I was. I thought he was a lot older. But regarded him as a great player and a big plus for the sport. R.I.P. to all.
Cheers

Rest in Peace Bruce-you did an excellent job--most especially with my favorite Eastwood movie: The Outlaw Josey Wales.

Davy Jones of the Monkees died. He was 66. I was a Monkees fan. This makes me sad.
-
Sorry to hear this news. Rest in peace, Davy.
-
I just saw him on a PBS station doing some oldies. He was my age. Close to home.

RIP Davy.
The Monkees were also very popular here in the UK -
Rest in Peace Davy.
Also: Conservative: Andrew Breitbart passed away today at 43.
Rest in Peace Andrew.
I was shocked to hear about Andrew Breitbart. He was only 43! It's kind of scary when someone so much younger than me passes away. I have long enjoyed listening to him, watching him and reading his articles. He will be sorely missed. I was also saddened to hear about Davy Jones. Not that I was a big fan of his (that would have been my little sister), but he was a cultural icon from my much younger days, that is now gone, and that is always a shocker.
Rest in Peace, Andrew and Davy

Hi Bob, same here. I just saw him in something about a week ago or maybe 10 days? Im about to turn 45, and it is something to really think about. I enjoyed his well presented reports.
Same here on Davy, I wasnt a fan of he or The Monkees, but you hate to see another talent go too soon.

Songwriter Robert Sherman died. Along with his brother Richard, he wrote the music for Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and many others. I just recently watched a documentary, The Boys: The Sherman Brothers' Story. It was good.
