THEY LEFT US AND WE FORGOT.

If you are like me I forget who, of importance, passed away during the year. When their name is mentioned on the news we may comment "that's too bad I liked her or him" and remember for about a week or a month. Six months from then someone will bring up a celebreties name and say, I wonder if he or she is still alive.
It isn't until the end of the year when a column is printed in the paper naming all of the people in television or film industry who have passed away this year.
In the television industry there were 14 stars who have left us and in the film industry there were also 14 stars that have left us.
Just to name a few to see if you remember. Soupy Sales, Ed McMahon, Walter Cronkite, David Caradine of "Kung Fu,", Gene Barry, Billy Mays who could sell anything, Gale Storm and all of our favorites Farrah Fawcett.
In the film industry we had Patrick Swayze, of recent BrittanyMurphy, porn star Marilyn Chanbers, comedian Dom DeLuise, Mr. sauve Ricardo Montalban, Karl Malden, Jennifer Jones. This is not a complete list but enough to say I didn't know when asked about if they are still with us.
One thing for certain is that they will be with us a long time as well as others of long ago when you see them on television or on CD's
