Tragic? Yes. This year isn't even half over and yet we have buried mostly part of the celebrity world. Ed Koch, Roger Ebert, Mindy McCready (Who committed suicide by gunshot), Annette Funicello, Jonathan Winters..
the list is gonna go on and on.
I know I'm nit picking about this but this is just.... remarkable in it's own way. Sadly we are going lose more by the end of the year. But we have to remember how they brought us entertainment, enjoyment and happiness in our lives through music, tv, movies anything they were in, we will remember them for. Sadly we just lost the final surviving juror in the classic "12 angry men" movie that I love so much. Yes Jack Klugman is dead. Although he died on Christmas Eve last year it's still sad. Bonnie Franklin also passed away. Who was she? She was in young and the restless.
Even Margaret Thatcher just died and she became more famous when Meryl Streep portrayed her in a movie. The saddest thing is that she wasn't the only on that had a movie in memory of her. Many famous people depict of their lives in movies, such as Michael Jackson's "this is it" (sadly it was) and also there was presidential movies such as Lincoln or JFK that portrayed their lives and deaths in so much detail and it seemed we remember them more for their death than their life.
But with these recent celebrity deaths, it's just sad to know there are more celebrities that are hurt and maybe some that using drugs to coat the pain away from all the glamor. But even if it was an illness of cancer, or suicide, or just an accident from a car crash, it's their life story we will remember them for the most of the time not their deaths. One of my favorite quotes is after all: Just because they're gone, doesn't mean they are forgotten. They will still be remembered for who they are
Every year, someone (even a celebrity) dies, but then again.... A baby is born.
Till then Ciao Bloggers! and PRAY FOR BOSTON!
