Hey Reaper, how 'bout we put the scythe away for a while?

[J.B.]

Don't believe I've ever seen so much death on one page before. The General Buzz is looking more like the obituaries these days.

[Nostalgiabuff]

I hear you. it's depressing how many celebs have been lost in the first 3 months of 2016

[jwyblejr]

And now Earl Hamner Jr.,creator of the Waltons.

[Nostalgiabuff]

yeah, but at least Hamner had a good long life. many of these other celebs were gone far too young

[GlobalObserver]

Approximately 55.3 million people die each year.

Approximately 151,600 people die each day.

Nothing new.

Maybe I should have been a mortician, never have to worry about getting laid off.

[Mikey]

must have been the salmon mousse

[HardyGirl]

And now Earl Hamner Jr.,creator of the Waltons.

He's gone too? Oh man.

[jwyblejr]

I didn't know he created Falcon Crest as well.

[Sideshow Spock]

I didn't know he created Falcon Crest as well.

Would liked to have seen a Waltons vs Falcon Crest Battle of the Network Stars.. Mary Ellen Walton fights dirty, she woulda gouged Jane Wyman's eyes out..

[Spawn67]

Another one is James Noble who you may remember as the goofy mayor on BENSON...I didn't know he was 94!

Yes.

But most are unknown faces to us.

Celebrities deaths are magnified...because the masses know of them, so it makes it a bit more newsworthy.

[Iron Mego]

Add Patty Duke to the list.

But James Garner died a couple years ago.
