Patrick Swayze Died

[denmarksoccer]

Today my school had "lament" (to grieve, to mourn, to regret) as its word of the day.
And its example sentence was "fans of Patrick Swayze lament his death."
I don't think we should make a thread for specific people who died...

what do you want a "Someone Famous died mourn about them here" thread?

Personally, I think all of the death threads are annoying. Kill them all.

nice pun

With the amount of people that are "famous" in today's world, it's expected to see some of them die. It's something that happens. I don't see this year as anything special...although the McMahon/Fawcett/Jackson/Mays deaths all within a week was a little weird.

And I don't see how one could list famous people that have died so far this year and neglect to mention Walter Cronkite - a man who actually had a significant impact on history, not a pop star or celebrity.

agreed. especially about Cronkite. I don't like any of our newer news anchors.
I think that Irwin would be missed, but apparently not that many people heard of his death last year.

Agreed, though forgetting Ted Kennedy thats just an absolute crime even more so than forgetting Cronkite.
