What Celeberty Passing
 just made You sigh, or cry Heavily.[sm=frown.gif]
 
Of course where not related to them.
{Well maybe we are?}
 
Someone that You just couldn't believe had passed.
 
For me it was Brandon Lee. {Bruce Lees son.}
His career was so short.
 
I still have the Original Maanuscript from the movie
the "Crow."

Princess Diana

Princess Diana. I watched her wedding as a little girl and actually threw a dress up party in her honor. Her death and funeral was the saddest thing since Kennedy being shot. She was the closest thing that our generation had to royalty we could embrace as our own.

Steve Irwin's death really got to me for some reason. He was so alive, and had such a passion for life. It's interesting how you can feel the loss of someone you have never met.

Kurt Cobain was about the only one. I liked him from what I saw, both music and personality.

That all happened when I was in high school and really into music.

But it wasn't a feeling on par with the loss of person I actually knew, I could never imagine feeling like that about a celebrity.

Well, I can still remember at 8 years old hearing on a radio in a mobile library that President Kennedy had been shot. I was young, but I could still tell that something had changed forever.
I also was very sad when John Lennon was killed, and at the passing of George Harrison.

Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin because they had REAL talent and not the manufactured talent that record labels try to sell us today.



Estring -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/10/2006 11:33:18 PM)

I have to agree with you there. Rock is dead, and has been for a long time.



SirKenin -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/10/2006 11:41:39 PM)

I have to admit not one of them.  The only one I somewhat miss is Freddy Mercury.  That guy was the epitomy of talent in My books.  A terrible loss to the music world.

Johnny Carson
Julia Child, too

  It was sad for me to see guys like Len Bias, Reggie White and Kirby Puckett pass on at an early age. John Wayne is a movie star I miss though.

I too heard of the JFK assasination as it interrupted my innocence at an early age. At first I was somewhat shocked and in awe but it quickly became reality that nothing or no one is sacred or protected from the evils of determined men.

As the years passed, seeing Bobby Kennedy also murdered reinforced the deep sadness which had begun to heal.

When John Kennedy Jr, wife and friend were killed in the private plane crash it was as if America had lost a last prince.  The vivid endearing image of little Jon Jon saluting his father's casket during the DC funeral parade will never leave my mind.  

It would be so easy to list name after name... Walter Cronkite, Ronald Reagan, Gregory Peck, Jack Benny, Jackie Gleason, Lucille Ball, Ronnie Van Zant & Lynyrd Skynyrd, Scott Bonham, Johnny Cash & June Carter, Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty & Tammy Wynnette, John Denver, and so many others... all loved in their own special ways and for their own unique contributions, each a loss of a greater magnitude, felt by all who they have touched.



Mavis -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 12:39:06 AM)

Johnny Carson, Carrol O'Connor, Steve Irwin.

i am really bummed witrh this Croc Hunter thing.  Mrs Croc Hunter is waking up to such a quiet house.. all that fire and passion.. what a hole in thier lives.

It doesn't worry me if the one passing has had a long life and dies of natural causes. It's the ones that pass on suddenly, like Steve Irwin and Peter Brock (Aussie race driver who died in a rally crash last Friday). Princess Diana, Freddie Mercury (even though it was known he was so ill, it was still a shock), Elvis, John Lennon, Janis, Jimi, Jim Morrison......

My dad rang me to tell me about Princess Diana....I thought he was pulling my leg at first, but then switched on the TV and damn it was true [&o] I was home alone when I heard about Elvis, and John Lennon just 3 years later. I watched the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert with tears in my eyes [:(] So many, taken too soon [&o]



SDFemDom4cuck -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 3:05:42 AM)

Frank Sinatra.

I'm a huge fan. The day he died my best friend called me at 5am to tell me so I wouldn't hear it on the news and get in an accident during my commute. I cried for days. Went to Palm Springs and left flowers on his star there, etc the whole thing.



MistressWolfen -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 6:21:01 AM)

I felt a sense of loss when the following people died, not grief just saddened that I had read/heard the last from them: (in no particular order)
Isaac Asimov
Mordecai Richler
Carl Sagan
(Israel Pincu Lazarovitch) Irving Layton




MasterFireMaam -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 7:27:50 AM)

Jim Henson.

NEVER loose your sense of wonder.

Master Fire



sub4hire -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 10:45:24 AM)

Elvis Prseley,
I was not a fan of his and never will be a fan.  Though he passed away right after my brother did.  My brother was my best friend in life.

So, I guess it was the breaking point at that period of time.



jesskitty -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 12:43:09 PM)

mine was definatly a more contemporary one, aaliyah. she was young, beautiful, talented singer and starting to cover and was surrounded by up and comming hiphop/rnb/rap artist(such as missy elliot) and was entering into the movie area. it really hit me to hear how she died, how it was explained how it could've been easily avoided and due to rushing instead of safety this tragic event ended the life of a very taletned young women with promise.



ShiftedJewel -> RE: Feelings about a celeberty passing? Steve Irwin... etc (9/11/2006 4:27:46 PM)

Steve Irwine.... yeah.... and Michael Landon... I cried when he died.
