Not "in memoriam" of the actual year 2016 -- that is an annus horribilis that is best burned to death, locked in a trunk, and dumped overboard into the Marianas Trench. I just wanted to leave a note about many of the people who influenced me who died in 2016. This is only a partial list, at best, of all we lost last year, which somehow makes it even more sad.
William Christopher. Debbie Reynolds. Carrie Fisher. Richard Adams. George Michael. ZsaZsa Gabor. Alan Thicke. John Glenn. Ron Glass. Dooky Chase. Florence Henderson. Gwen Ifill. Leon Russell.
