Fatality: 2018 edition

It's the end of 2017; as some call it, a dumpster-fire of a year. Though I am a few days early, here's to the first entry: the passing of 2017.

Here's to 2018, may this thread see fewer entries than its predecessor....
its hard to believe this was posted a hole year ago! Time flew buy and i can't even count how many passed along the way

@Clementine_3 thanks for that latest news! i @ws just reminiscent of this song just yesterday and was actually wondering where this band were today… . sad.

One of the original Mouseketeers, Dennis Day, disappeared last July, and remains were recently found on his property in Oregon, so it seems likely he’s no longer with us (for some time now).

RIP, Dennis, and thanks for all the fun and joy you brought to so many kids.
Here's a link.

Burt Reynolds. :(

People magazine is reporting that Mr. Reynolds has finally been interred “at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery on Thursday in a private ceremony, the Associated Press reported. Reynolds' family members reportedly participated via Zoom.”

No mention of *why* it took 29 months to bury him, though.

RIP, Burt.
