Captain Sir Tom Moore has lost his fight with Covid-19. He can rest easy. He's done more in his 100 years than most of us could do if we were granted a thousand. An amazing man.
Rest In Peace Sir Tom.

“That explains its unusual shape,” Styanar said, grinning openly now. “Although it does little to illuminate just why your jowls are so flaccid or why you have quite so many chins.”
“I…” Had she just called him fat? “I am just a different species, that’s all.”
“Well nature sure does have a sense of humour then,” Styanar said. “Shall we go inside? It’d not be a good idea for me to be spotted by others.”

Christopher Plummer, British actor, has died: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-55954950
The article claims he was best known for The Sound Of Music. Never seen it myself. I remember him best from The Royal Hunt Of The Sun.
Edit: Apparently he was Canadian. Apologies for that.

So did I. Many a teenage moment I spent in the company of his magazines.
I can't breathe.

I remember the movie about him. Odd life.
Don't remember seeing his magazines anywhere. Must be one of those all in covered in paper

Re: Death announcements for persons of note
Oh, darn. Had to happen sometime, I suppose, but it felt like the guy would just keep going forever...
Re: Death announcements for persons of note
I had no idea he was that old... and then when I googled when he retired, it was 2001. Blimey.
A good innings and a legendary voice.

Sabine Schmitz (51) passed away because of cancer.
We've recently discussed here on the forums about women in sports: she currently is the only woman to have won the Nurburgring 24h (twice, in 1996 and 1997, both times on a BMW M3).

Re: Death announcements for persons of note
Oh, wow, didn't know she was ill! She's probably better known in the UK for her occasional appearances on Top Gear (both the Jeremy Clarkson version and the more recent ones), in particular, her attempt to beat Jeremy Clarkson's Jaguar Nurburgring time of a bit less than 10 minutes...while driving a diesel Transit van. Seemed like a nice person with a great sense of humour, and 51 is no age at all, she'll be missed.BrasatoAlBarolo wrote: ↑Wed, 17. Mar 21, 11:42Sabine Schmitz (51) passed away because of cancer.

Re: Death announcements for persons of note
Been a few peeps that have passed away and haven't had a mention here, but this one I have to sadly announce.
Dusty Hill ZZTOP's bassist has passed away aged 72, currently there is no known cause, just that he died in his sleep. One of the best gigs I ever went to was a ZZTOP concert, 3 guys on a stage, nothing fancy, just them playing some great music to 80 thousand cheering fans.
R.I.P. Dusty.
