Every single munchkin in the Wizard of OZ. Just found out that, as of yesterday, only one left, one of the Lollipop Guild boys...93. The last female munchkin died yesterday at 95.

I assumed he was still alive, but I sure as hell never realized that Christopher Lee was 92.

Didn't realize Maya Angelou was 86 either.

Mathis is "only" 80. He was a mere 41 when "When A Child Is Born" was Xmas #1 in the UK (and 24 when he recorded "Misty"!), and yet seemed to be mid-50s even then.

Michael Jones, Monday, 7 March 2016 13:17 (ten years ago)

Surprised to see trailers for what looks like something presented by Maureen Lipman. Thought there was a big thing about her dying 10 or more years ago.

Mother Angelica

small doug yule carnival club (unregistered), Thursday, 17 March 2016 18:52 (ten years ago)

In a 1993 episode of Mother Angelica Live, Mother Angelica harshly criticized a mimed re-enactment of the Stations of the Cross at the World Youth Day in Denver, Colorado, which was attended by Pope John Paul II. Mother Angelica was particularly upset that a woman was playing Jesus. Archbishop Rembert Weakland of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee called Mother Angelica's comments "...one of the most disgraceful, un-Christian, offensive, and divisive diatribes I have ever heard".[20] Mother Angelica responded by saying, "He didn't think a woman playing Jesus was offensive? He can go put his head in the back toilet as far as I am concerned!"[20]

Gavin MacLeod. (I reposted the Trump-Warhol photo from the politics thread yesterday on Facebook, and someone followed with one of MacLeod and Warhol. Looked him up, and he's still around.)

Mamie Van Doren is 85 now, and so is the actress Nita Talbot, who when she was in her late 30s played the White Russian spy Marya on Hogan's Heroes
