Well, a monster is finally gone from this world. Ian Brady died in jail from lung cancer at 79. Ian Brady, along with his lover Myra Hindley, sexually assaulted and murdered around 5 young victims, known as the Moors murders. Hindley has been roasting in hell since 2002. I hope the families that were affected from this reached some sort of peace.

TIS, That movie was called Guyana Tragedy: The Story of Jim Jones. He was also in that TV mini series Hatfield & McCoys.

Whatever film or TV series he was in, he always added with his great acting skills. He could play any role. When he played Jim Jones in "The Guyana Tragedy" I thought he WAS Jim Jones. He was on "Marvel's Agents of Shield" not too long ago as a Hydra villain.

Soundgarden and Audioslave singer Chris Cornell died

Also, I liked Boothe as Roman General Aetius in the movie Attila. I just realized that he was in Tombstone.

Roger Moore, the actor most famous for his James Bond movies, died at age 89.

Yea, I just heard about Roger Moore. Tho I've seen a few Bond movies, I was never a huge fan. However, I remember way back when he was in the tv series "The Saint." Was on late at night on weekends, but I use to watch.

I didn't know he had cancer.

RIP

RIP I always thought he was the MOST CHARMIMG James Bond out of all the actors who played that role.

Roger Moore was always my favorite bond growing up. If you want to picture a typical Englishman them Roger Moore typifys the English man..

RIP

I picked him..

Dina Merrill also died, at 93. She was a candidate to be the next Grace Kelly, but was handicapped by being several years older than Grace (who's now been dead for 35 years):

Frank Deford, legendary sportswriter, dies at age 78

Frank Deford, one of the sharpest and most affable sportswriters in American journalistic history, died Sunday at the age of 78. Deford’s decades-long career reached from the daily newspaper to the smartphone screen, covering every medium in between. A Sports Illustrated contributor since 1962, Deford also created memorable television segments for outlets including HBO and CNN. His weekly sports segments on NPR, which he concluded earlier this month, showcased his characteristic wit, insight, curiosity, and compassion.

My list still needs updating:

Former major leaguer Jim Piersall, who bared his soul about his struggles with mental illness in his book "Fear Strikes Out," has died. He was 87. Piersall died Saturday at a care facility in Wheaton, Illinois, after a monthslong illness, according to the Boston Red Sox, for whom Piersall played for seven of his 17 seasons in the majors.

Piersall's on-field antics when he first broke into the majors with the Red Sox full-time in 1952 cracked up fans and provided fodder for newspaper columnists. In one game against the St. Louis Browns, he made pig noises and mocked the odd throwing motion of aging Hall of Fame pitcher Satchel Paige.

But Piersall also had furious arguments with umpires, broke down sobbing one day when told he wouldn't play and got into a fistfight with the New York Yankees' Billy Martin at Fenway Park, followed minutes later by a scuffle with a teammate.

"Almost everybody except the umpires and the Red Sox thought I was a riot," Piersall said in the 1955 autobiography, later made into a movie starring Anthony Perkins and Karl Malden. "My wife knew I was sick, yet she was helpless to stop my mad rush towards a mental collapse. The Red Sox couldn't figure out how to handle me. I was a problem child."

He played 56 games in the majors before being admitted to a mental hospital with what was later diagnosed as bipolar disorder. He wrote in his book that he had almost no memory of the season or his time in the hospital. He returned to the majors in 1953 "sound and healthy" thanks to "shock treatments, faith, a wonderful wife, a fine doctor and loyal friends." He went public to shatter society's stereotypes of the mentally ill.

Piersall was "famous" for running the bases backwards after he hit his 100th career homerun. Also, one of his incidents involved charging the mound and throwing his batting helmut at pitcher, Jim Bunning in the early '60s. Bunning just died last week.

Piersall, depsite all the attention to his emotional issues, was a decent ballplayer.

Two more to add:

Actor Peter Sallis died June 2 at age 96. (He was on Don Marco's list.)

Actress Elena Verdugo died May 30 at age 92. (She was on my list.)

Yeah, I'd say it was time for an update!


Signor V.

SV, I knew Elena Verdugo rang a bell. My first thought was she played a nurse on tv. Sure enough, I googled her and remembered she was on Marcus Welby.

John G. Avildsen, who won an Oscar for directing the original “Rocky” (1976), starring Sylvester Stallone, and also directed all three of the original “Karate Kid” films, has died in Los Angeles. He was 81.

Actor Stephen Furst, best known for his performances as the hapless Flounder in Animal House and put-upon rookie doc Eliott Axelrod on St. Elsewhere, died yesterday at his home in Moorpark, California, near Los Angeles, due to complications from diabetes.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Carrie Fisher's autopsy report shows the actress had cocaine in her system when she fell ill on a plane last year, but investigators could not determine what impact the cocaine and other drugs found in her system had on her death.

The report released Monday states Fisher may have taken cocaine three days before the Dec. 23 flight on which she became ill. She died four days later.

It also found traces of heroin and MDMA, which is also known as ecstasy, but that they could not determine when Fisher had taken those drugs. The findings were based on toxicology screenings done on samples taken when the "Star Wars" actress arrived at a Los Angeles hospital.
